I would like to know that if we have total employee strength of 95 nos. and out of 95nos. only 10 nos. are getting salary below 15,000/-.
Do we have to take ESI registrationfor 10 employees or we are exempted, as I was given to understand that we need to have 20 employees falling below the limit of 15,000/- we need to register.
thank you,

Dear Mr Kapoor
Till recently only the number of employees drawing wage of prescribed limit or above was required to be counted for deciding coverage due to SC judgement in Suri Case. But the ESI act has been amended this year ( applicable from April or so) by which all employees, irrespective of the wage, need to be taken into account for deciding coverage (10 in case of manufacgturing units and 20 for Shops, transport, news papeer establisment etc.)

Drivers are also to be covered for WC policy. In any case in case of any accident, claim under Wokmens Compensation will have to be setteled by Employer directly if no policy is taken. If you are covered under ESI scheme, then WC act will not apply and all compensation for accident, disability, death, sickness etc will be paid by ESI Crporation. Security guards are also to be covered under all labour laws if they are working in your premises or you should ensure that the agency providing the guards are covered under EPF, ESI, etc and are paying minimum wage.
In other words you can not avoid the labour law and social security protection to employees working inside your premises mereby because they are engaged through a contractor.
