Dear Seniors,
I have query with regards to ESIC contribution and benefit in the below case study:
1) If the first contribution of an employee is deducted in the month of March 2017 (ie. he falls in the contribution period 1st Oct to 31st March) then can he take benefit for the entire period of 1st July 2017 to 31st December 2017. Or is there a fix nos. of ESIC contribution to take benefit.
2) suppose if the employee or family member met with an accident or get ill in the month of April 2017 will he be able to take the benefit of ESIC.
3)Suppose an employee who is a member of ESIC is not able to contribute to ESIC for the entire period of 1st Oct to 31st March due to absence will he be able to take the benefit of ESIC. And also does the cause of absence plays any role (for eg case 1:he is absent due to illness/ or any other reason but not taken any illness benefit of ESIC, case 2: He is absent due to illness but is taking illness leave benefit from ESIC)
4)An employee salary is revised in the month of may 2017 and his gross salary is above 21000 but the revision is with effective from April 2017. But since his salary was 19000 gross at the time of processing April salary his contribution was deducted.So as per rule now he will have to contribute to the entire period of April to Sept 2017. So during this period hid contribution will be as per 19000 or his revised gross.
5)Suppose the gross salary of the employee is 22000 which include a monthly production bonus of 2000.This bonus is paid to employee only in the month he achieve the target. So will this component be considered to determine the ESIC eligibility of the employee.
Please answer to each case by mentioning the case number to avoid confusion.
