Dear Vijay,
Without a disability certificate obtained from a registered medical practitioner, you cannot simply determine the amount of compensation under the Employees’ Compensation Act, 1923. Therefore, please have the employee examined by a doctor to assess the degree of disability.
Thank you.

Thank you, Umakanthan Sir, for your guidance. Can you, sir, let me know if the degree of disability is determined as a 30% loss in earning capacity, how the calculation will proceed?
What I have understood, and as per the WC Act, the calculation would be as follows: Age 23 Factor 219.95 (As per the WC Act) 60% of the monthly salary = 6600 30% disability. Then the compensation amount works out to be as follows: 6600 X 219.95 X 30% = 4,35,501.00
Hope the above is correct. Please suggest/guide if any.

The Schedule 1 of the EC Act provides details regarding the loss of earning capacity for various injuries sustained by a worker. Specifically, in the case of a reported loss of the Middle Finger, the table below outlines the percentages:
Middle finger:
- Whole: 12%
- Two phalanges: 9%
- One Phalanx: 7%
- Guillotine amputation of tip without loss of bone: 4%
Based on the specific circumstances, the percentage of loss of earning capacity can be determined, and the compensation payable can be calculated using the formula outlined in Section 4(1)(c) of the Act for permanent partial disability.
