Overview
Employees’ State Insurance Corporation registration is a statutory compliance required for certain establishments under the Employees’ State Insurance Act, 1948. ESIC registration ensures that employees receive medical care, sickness benefits, maternity benefits and compensation in case of employment injury. The scheme is designed to provide social security and financial protection to employees working in factories and notified establishments.
Any establishment employing ten or more employees, or twenty employees in some states, must obtain ESIC registration if employees earn wages up to the prescribed threshold. ESIC applies to factories, shops, hotels, restaurants, cinemas, road transport establishments, educational institutions and many service sector entities. Once covered, both employer and employee are required to make monthly contributions at rates notified by the government.
ESIC registration is mandatory within fifteen days of the Act becoming applicable to an establishment. Non registration or non payment of contributions can result in penalties, interest and prosecution. Employers must also comply with monthly contribution filing, maintenance of employee records and timely updating of employee details on the ESIC portal. Proper ESIC compliance protects employers from legal risks and ensures employee welfare.
