Let me try to answer a few of your queries. Beforehand, it would be advisable if you could let the forum know who you are and the purpose of so many questions arising in your mind. Is it related to your work or for your academic purposes?
1) Entitlement to Funeral Expenses
Is a dependent entitled to funeral expenses in case of the death of an employee other than on the job/work? Yes, dependents are entitled to funeral expenses since the employee has died, so obviously, the dependent/family members are entitled.
2) Leave Salary for Hospitalization
Does the company grant leave salary if an employee is hospitalized, and if not, for how many days does ESIC give salary for leave? What is the rate? An employee can either take leave salary or can benefit from the ESIC for hospitalization as per the Act.
3) ESI Deduction on Arrears
Suppose the company gives arrears to an employee, and then his gross salary for that month increases. What will be the deduction of ESI? Will it be on the previous salary or the increased salary? ESIC contribution is applicable to arrears too.
4) ESI Deductions on Overtime
Does overtime count in ESI deductions? ESIC contribution also applies to overtime.
5) ESI Deduction on Bonus
Suppose a bonus is paid in the month of November, and it is a part of the gross salary. Whether ESI deduction will be done on the new gross salary. Annual Bonus is not considered as wages; hence, ESIC contribution is not applicable.
I hope your queries are resolved.
