Understanding ESI Contribution and Benefit Periods
As per the Employees' State Insurance Regulations of 1950, a person who becomes an employee within the meaning of the Act for the first time will have their first contribution period commence from the date of such employment in the contribution period current on that day. The corresponding benefit period for them shall commence on the expiry of nine months from the date of such employment. This means that the benefit will start after the expiry of nine months from becoming a member.
Similarly, even if someone is out of the purview of the Act due to an increase in salary (above ₹15,000), they will receive corresponding benefits for the next nine months from such date.
