One of our employee got injured in an accident and ESIC Doctor instructed to have 30 days of Bed Rest.
What benefits one can claim via EPF or ESIC for the duration of Rest Period ?
What are the procedures ?
From India, Guwahati



For accident employer needs to sybmit Form 12 accident report through online to ESIC. After discharge from ESI hospital take all the documents i.e., Admit form, discharge summary and rest suggested by docter. These all documents have to be shown in IP(Employee) registered dispensary and the dispensary doctor will issue leave certificate in duplicte which original has to be submitted to ESI branch office and 2nd copy to be filed by the employer.
At ESI branch office employer needs to submit wage register, attendance register, witness statement if accident occurred in factory premises.
The employee will get leave till doctors certify the employee was fit to join duty.
Hope it helps.

If he was not in employment during the above mentioned period he will not get the cash benefit.
In the case of employment injury the above conditions regarding contribution and benefit period will not apply. He will get average wage for 30 days.
