PF and ESI Applicability for Construction Contracting Companies
PF and ESI are applicable to a construction contracting company.
As Regards to PF:
If you have 20 or more employees, including those directly and indirectly employed by you, you fall under the ambit of the Act and are liable to obtain a PF code and comply with the Act accordingly.
If you are executing contract work in a PF-covered establishment and employing fewer than 20 employees or even just one person in such a PF-covered establishment, you are liable to cover the employees under the PF scheme by virtue of PF being applicable to the Principal.
As Regards to ESI:
It appears that you are from Ahmedabad. If your office, including branch offices, employs 10 or more employees, the ESI Act is applicable to you.
You can exempt your construction site workers from ESI coverage as per the circular by ESI HQ; Construction 4/99. However, your regular employees, technical staff, engineers, etc., working at the project site are coverable under the scheme if their salary is less than 15K (Gross).
If your office/branch offices and construction site are situated in a non-implemented area, ESI is not applicable.
