Provide Healthcare Benefits to Employees — ESI Compliant from Day 1
Employee State Insurance (ESI) is a self-financing social security and health insurance scheme for Indian workers, governed by the ESI Act, 1948. Any establishment employing 10 or more persons (in states where the threshold is 10) and whose employees earn ₹21,000 or less per month must register under ESIC (Employees' State Insurance Corporation). Employees contribute 0.75% of wages; employers contribute 3.25% — totalling 4% of wages deposited monthly with ESIC.
ESI provides employees with medical care, sick benefits, maternity benefits, disability benefits, and dependent benefits — essentially a comprehensive health and social security net. ESI card holders can avail medical services at ESIC hospitals and dispensaries across India.
For employers, ESI registration protects against labour law violations and provides a competitive edge in attracting quality employees.

Frequently Asked Questions
What if an employee earns more than ₹21,000/month?
Employees earning above ₹21,000/month (gross wages) are excluded from ESI coverage. If an existing ESI-covered employee gets a salary hike above ₹21,000, they continue in ESI coverage until the end of that contribution period.
Is ESI applicable for contract workers and daily-wage employees?
Yes — contract workers, temporary employees, and daily-wage workers covered under the establishment's payroll are all eligible for ESI coverage if their wages are within the threshold.
