Dear All,
There was an incident where an employee met with an accident while on duty. His medical expenses have been taken care of by the company, and the doctor has advised him to take 20 days of rest.
Now, should his salary be paid by the company for the days he has been advised to rest, or does he need to apply for sick leave?
I would appreciate your suggestions and comments.

Dear Satya,
If the employee is covered under ESI, then sickness benefits will be paid by ESIC. If the employee is not covered under ESI, then give him sick leave.
