Dear Members, I am from Chennai, Tamil Nadu. Kindly request you to clarify my doubts as follows
1) As our Factory not covered under ESI, we opted for a GPA policy. In case of any fatal accident happened in Factory, he can claim the benefits via GPA. Is the employer also does need to pay compensation as per the Employee Compensation Act? i.e. If a company opted for the GPA is the company liable for the Employee Compensation act too?
2) Is there any ceiling amount for the Employee Compensation Act?
Kindly clarify.
