Understanding Coverage Under ESI Act, 1948 and EPF & MPs Act, 1952
1. To get coverage under the provisions of the ESI Act, 1948, and the EPF & MPs Act, 1952, you must delve into the details of the eligibility of an establishment for coverage under these Acts. You can find this information in the literature available on the websites of the respective departments.
2. You can also contact the nearest or appropriate offices of these two organizations for coverage of your establishment.
3. I believe that to obtain code numbers or coverage under these Acts, there are no expenses involved except for the compliance required since the date of coverage. However, regarding the coverage of security establishments or contractors, etc., ESIC has laid down some conditions for advance payments, which can be ascertained from the appropriate office of the organization.
