ESI Registration When Job Change

Hi all,
I am a regular visitor of this site.
I want to know, like PF, when an employee changes a job he has to get reregistered for ESI ?

Dear Archana,
In case of ESI, if one changes the Job then he is required to apply for a new registration with that new organisation..
Whereas, in case of PF one may either withdraw their PF amount or transfer the fund to their current employer..

Hi Amit,
my query was ,for PF ,when an employee changes a job he has to apply for new PF number as the new employer has his own PF registration no.
I wanted to know whether for ESI also one has to undergo the same formality with the new employer?

You mean to say if an emoplyee gets registered under ESI act, he need not to get a new no. in case he changes the job.
His old ESI card will get continued?
one more thing in case he gets increment in salary and crosses 10,000/-,then what ?

Hi Archana
I am agree with amit
When an employee leave or change his job he can continue with the same PF No. in his new job. Because allotted PF Account no. is just like the bank account no. which will be same only code no. allotted to the emploeyrs are different.
But when an employee change his job he can't continue with the same ESI No he will have to register himself again with ESIC to get the new Insurance No.

Hi Archna
I m correcting myself that one can't continue with the same PF No. but he can transfer his old pf amount in his new pf account.

Thank You Sushma..
Dear Archana,
if one crosses the ceiling of rupees 10000/- per month as gross salary, then obviously he will be exempted under ESI Act...
Yes, Sushma very correctly said.. he may transfer his deposited fund to the current PF number..

Thanks a million sushma.
But I ahve heard that the person can get continued for few months ( 4-5 months,not sure) after he is out of perview of ESI due to salary hike.
Is it true ?

Dear Archana,
Actually there is two return cycle of ESI in a year at a interval of six months .. and one is required to complete the cycle till the end..
So even after exceeding the ceiling one will get the benefits till the end of the cycle..

Dear All,
This is to inform you that just like PF, ESIC No. can be transfered. Process is that when ever we join, our current employer have to give a ESI No. transfer letter to ESIC Deptt. The ESIC cards need to be renewed.
