In a bid to widen the social security safety net, the Labour Minister, Mr. Sis Ram Ola, has announced that people drawing a salary up to Rs. 25,000/- shall be covered under the ESI Scheme. Currently, the benefit is available to people drawing a salary up to Rs. 15,000/- only. The decision to extend the coverage was made on Thursday, 19th September 2013. The last increase in the salary ceiling for ESI was in May 2010 when it was raised to Rs. 15,000/- from Rs. 10,000/-.
This change will impact the take-home salary of employees currently in the salary bracket of Rs. 15,000/- to Rs. 25,000/-. Additionally, it will increase the ESI contribution and compliance requirements for employers.

My name is Swami, Senior Officer HR from Pune. As per the feedback from all 1700 employees and top management, it is very bad news for us. No one is happy in my organization due to this bad decision taken by the government, and I believe every HR professional is well aware of this. "Fight for Right."
