Clarification Needed for Employee Benefits
You should describe your organization, nature, and place of business, number of employees, etc. It's not clear, so a clear answer cannot be posted. Please take adequate care for your future posts hereafter.
Eligibility for EPF/EPS and ESIC Benefits
For claims of various benefits under EPF/EPS and also under ESIC or the Employee Compensation Act, the employee concerned needs to be made a member only. There is a death benefit of Rs. 50,000 available immediately. I hope you have completed the nominations procedure on day one. Please obtain the death certificate and submit/forward applications for Pension and EDLI before the RPFC. If he is covered under ESI, his dependents will be entitled to a pension as well. In case ESI is not applicable, please ensure that his dependents receive the prescribed death compensation caused due to an accident. In fact, these are real HR works!
