Facing ESIC Denial in Non-Implemented Areas: How Can We Get Our Contributions Back?

Dear All Seniors,

We have more than 500 shops all over India. One of my shops has been registered in Chhattisgarh, which is a non-implemented area. We have also deposited monthly contributions for more than a year. However, when one of my employees went to the ESIC dispensary, they were denied treatment due to the non-implemented area status.

Seniors,

How can we claim a refund for our contributions from ESIC?

Best regards,
S.K. Dhaka

To claim a refund from ESIC in a non-implemented area, follow these steps:

Contact ESIC Authorities
- Reach out to the ESIC authorities in your region to inquire about the process for claiming a refund in a non-implemented area.

Provide Documentation
- Prepare all necessary documentation, including proof of contributions made, employee details, and any communication received regarding the non-implemented area status.

Submit Refund Request
- Submit a formal refund request to the ESIC office, clearly outlining the situation, providing all relevant documents, and explaining the denial of treatment to your employee.

Follow Up
- Follow up with the ESIC office regularly to track the progress of your refund request and address any additional requirements they may have.

Seek Legal Advice

By following these steps and maintaining clear communication with the ESIC authorities, you can work towards claiming a refund for the contributions made in the non-implemented area.
