    ESI Corporation approves Enhancement of Wage Ceiling Limit from

    Rs.10,000/- to Rs. 15,000/-


    The ESI Corporation has approved to enhance
    wage ceiling from Rs. 10,000/- per month to
    Rs.15,000/- per month for coverage of
    employees under ESI Scheme in its 149th
    Meeting held on today i.e. on 19thFebruary, 2010
    under the chairmanship of Shri Mallikarjun
    Kharge, Union Minister of Labour and
    Employment. Shri Harish Rawat, Union
    Minister of State for Labour & Employment and
    Vice Chairman, ESIC was also present in the
    meeting.

    Keeping in view the increase in cost of living


    index and recommendations of the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Labour, the
    Corporation increased the wage ceiling limit for coverage of the employees under the ESI
    Scheme. This will help the Corporation to provide Social Security net to more and more
    employees of the Organized Sector.

    The Corporation also decided to enhance the benefit rates for Permanent Disablement and
    Dependants’ Benefit for those beneficiaries who are on the rolls of ESIC for getting life long
    benefits under these two types of benefits. These benefits entitle the beneficiaries to get a
    monthly amount for whole life in case of Disablement and Death. This has been done to
    compensate the beneficiaries against erosion in the real value of these monthly benefits due to
    inflation.

    In the meeting, ESI Corporation has also approved Revised Estimates of ESIC for current
    financial year and Budget Estimates for the year 2010-2011. An Amnesty Scheme has been
    approved by the Corporation for withdrawl of criminal cases filed against Insured Persons and
    Employers under Section 84, 85 and 85-A of ESI Act, 1948 and settlement of cases filed by the
    employers under 75 of the ESI Act. Provisions of primary and secondary medical care services
    in areas/districts where the existing ESI Hospitals are more than 25 Kms away and population
    of Insured Persons is more than 25000 in the areas, has also been approved by the Corporation
    in today’s meeting.
