Understanding the Compensation Act: Does It Include ESI and PF Benefits for Employees?

Good Morning, Hi everyone, I am an MSW HR student. I have a question about the Compensation Act. If you have any notes on this topic, could you please share them? Does the Compensation Act cover the ESI Act and its benefits? Are PF benefits available for employees? Thank you.

Your question is not clear. What do you want to get?

Does the Employees' Compensation Act cover those who are covered by the ESI Act?

If that is the question, I would say NO. The Employees' Compensation Act covers only those employees who are mentioned in Schedule II of the Act. However, the ESI Act covers employees in almost all industries but receiving wages not exceeding Rs 21,000. In the case of employees covered by ESI, the employer is not responsible for payment of any compensation under the Employees' Compensation Act; the responsibility of paying compensation will be borne by the ESI Corporation.

What is the relevance of PF in it?

I can't understand.
