Dear Kamal,
Salary or wage is not a determinative factor for the applicability of the Employees' Compensation Act, 1923 to an employee; rather, it is the nature of his job that matters. Without knowing this information, one cannot address a query like the one you raised.

The Workmen's Compensation Act (now called the Employee Compensation Act) will apply to everyone who is not under ESIC. So, if your employee is under ESIC, the act does not apply; otherwise, it is applicable.
But it would be helpful if you gave all relevant details instead of being cryptic.

As pointed out by Umakanthan Sir, for the applicability of Workmen's/ Employees' Compensation Act, wages are not a criterion. However, in respect of an employee covered by the ESI Act, the compensation payable as per the Employees' Compensation Act will be met by the Corporation.
Obviously, an employee of an establishment covered by the ESI Act whose salary is less than Rs. 21,000 would be under ESI. Therefore, if anything happens to him, the ESI Corporation will cover the compensation payable, and the employer need not pay it out of his working capital.

I agree with Banerjee, sir. When someone is putting a query for clarification, they need to provide full details so that they can receive an effective response, which, in turn, will be helpful to others.
In the query, if the employee is earning under Rs. 21,000/-, it is essential for the querist to mention whether their organization is covered under ESI or not. This information will enable us to provide an appropriate and elaborate answer.
I kindly request all querists to take note of this to derive more significant benefits from this forum and thereby benefit other enthusiasts.
