If my contractor's office is in ESIC coverage area and my factory is in the noncoverage area under ESIC?

Hi, Please give me a clear idea about ESIC registration.. If my contractor's office is in ESIC coverage area and my factory is in the noncoverage area under ESIC..
Can the contractor cover his employees in ESIC?

The applicability of ESI Act 1948 depends on the location of the establishment where the workers are deployed, if it is in a non-covered area then there will be no applicability even if the contractor has its registered office in an ESI covered area. There is no point in applying ESI to them as they will not be in a position to avail ESI benefits, like being at a distant place from ESI covered area.

Dear sir,
Can you please tell me that what is the procedure avail this facility in my area....
Where i can apply for that

If the contractor employs his workers in your factory, which is situated in a Non-coverage area under ESI, they need not be covered under ESI, by the contractor. Hope the matter is clarified to you.

ESI Corporation, under Govt of India have already initiated action of coverage of the Act, in various districts in the country. Hence, when the area where your factory is situated, will fell under ESI coverage, you can apply for ESI registration.

Thank you very much for your clarification
