If an employee is the sole earning member in a family, can he/ she include siblings as dependent for ESI. Also, for treatments is there a cap on expense? Thanks, Anoop
After 58 years of age, if a person is still in service, then the contribution to ESI and Employee PF remains the same. Only their Employer PF pension part (8.33% of 12%) will cease, and only the PF contribution (12%) will continue.
If a person is not in service, they are eligible to receive the PF amount on a monthly pension basis or can withdraw it at once, but they will be deprived of ESI benefits after completing the ESI tenure. If they want to opt for ESI benefits post-retirement, they must pay INR 120 per year to receive the benefit.
