All those who are covered under ESI scheme will automatically get covered under WC act. For all those who are exempted from ESI, please take a policy under WC act from any nationalized insurance company.

We run a 50 bed hospital for tribals in the Nilgiris. Would someone be able to advice me about the rules regarding ESI for our staff? They have PF and gratuity benefits. If ESI is not required, would they need WC as mentioned here? Thank you.

ESI is Compulsory if they have a gross monthly income less then Rs 15000

There is no compliance under EC Act until an employment injury occur.Some state rules prescribes publication of extracts of Act and Rules on notice board.
The post by Mr Muralikandukuri that all who are covered under ESI are covered automaticallynder EC Act is wrong.Employees covered under ESI are not entitled for the benefits under EC Act.
On the query of Dr Shylaja, All your employees irrespective of nature of work shall be covered under ESI if there salary is not above RS 15000/pm and your place is an implemented area.The benefit for others is your discretion.But fif any employees defined in schedule two of the EC Act is working under you they are entitled for compensation and reimbursement of full medical expenses if they meet with an employment injury.
