Re: Maternity Leaves For ESI Covered Employee

Dear All,
Can you please tell me if a employee is covered in ESI do she is eligible for Maternity Leaves.
Thanks
Deepika

Yes,She is.Moreover,the benefits payable to the concerned shall be taken care by the ESIC department itself with submission of requisite sets of documents by the concerned and authenticated by the employer.

a woman employee covered under ESi Act, cannot claim the benefit under the Maternity Benefit Act 1961.

Even if you are not covered under ESI, you can, irrespective of your designation, claim maternity leave of 12 weeks with wages under Maternity Benfit Act 1961ofwhich 6 weeks shall precede the expected date of delivery and 6 weeks thereafter.

Dear Ms. Desai,
Yes you are eligible for maternity leave as already mentioned by Mr. Yadav.Your salary must be above 15000, thats why company has not included you under ESIC.
