Hello Seniors,
My name is Rutvi Khandwala, and I work for an IT company in Ahmedabad, Gujarat. I require your assistance in composing an email regarding the announcement of PF and ESI.
Current Workforce and Consultant Engagement
Our current workforce consists of 40 employees, and we have engaged a consultant for PF and ESI matters. The consultant has provided us with valuable guidance on both aspects, and now it is necessary to inform our employees about these changes. I need to send an email to the team detailing the PF and ESI policies.
Company Policy on ESI and PF Contributions
Given that the current employees' salaries have already been determined, the company has decided to cover the ESI contributions. However, for PF, we will deduct both the employee's and employer's shares from their salary. Due to the high salary packages in IT companies, the employer cannot bear additional costs beyond the salary. Hence, we need to persuade our employees to contribute their share towards PF.
Special Considerations for Employees with Salaries Below 15k
There are only a few employees whose salaries are below 15k, and for them, the company will cover the ESI contributions. Regarding PF, we aim to make it optional. We will explain the benefits to employees, and if they prefer not to avail of this benefit and exempt themselves, that is acceptable.
Could you please assist me in drafting the email for this purpose?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Rutvi Khandwala

With reference to your remarks above, please confirm whether your consultant on EPF matters has advised your company "for PF we shall deduct both the share of employees and employers from their salary."
In my opinion, it would be better if you or your establishment prepare the proposed draft of the said email at your level and let the members see the same and offer their comments. Is it appropriate for any other person to prepare a draft for a company to which they are not connected at all?
