I am working in a software company as an HR Executive. Currently, we have 20+ members. Since we are eligible for PF criteria, I need to know all the details of the PF procedures for the company and staff. I also need to understand the salary structure for an IT company.

Dear Sid,
Discuss with your Higher Management people/Directors and first take an opinion from them. Inquire about their thoughts on available resources and their readiness to take on the challenge of such coverage. Many times, Directors raise another concern that all the employees (IT professionals) have surpassed the threshold salary limit of $15,000/CTC, and thus we are not covered by PF. They suggest that this issue should be addressed at the upper level.
Please provide an update on the further actions to be taken.
Thank you.

Solution for PF and ESI Compliance
1. Applicability
In establishments where 20 or more workers are employed, any establishment employing even fewer than 20 persons can be covered voluntarily under section 1(4) of the Act.
2. Documents Required for New PF No. Code
- List of employees
- Memorandum of articles
- Balance Sheet
- Copy of Sale Bill
- Copy of Partnership Deed
- Copy of Excise Registration Certificate
- Copy of Sales Tax Registration Certificate
3. Advice on Payment Slip
We should deduct ESI, and the medical allowance must be disbursed on a six-monthly or annual basis through voucher payments.
4. ESI Contribution
Employee's contribution is 1.75% and employer's contribution is 4.75%, totaling 6.5%. ESI is a statutory compliance that is mandatory for the employer to adhere to if they employ 10 or more workers, whether operating with power or without. The wage ceiling is Rs. (Basic+DA) 15,000/- per month.
Usually, the medical allowance is paid to employees not covered under the ESI Act. It is a reimbursement allowance covering expenses on medical treatment. It can be paid up to a maximum of Rs. 15,000/- per annum through vouchers on a monthly, six-monthly, or annual basis.
