ESI cash benefits at a glance

|---|---|
| Sickness benefit | 70% of wages, for up to 91 days in a year |
| Maternity benefit | Full wages for 26 weeks, extendable by one month on medical advice |
| Temporary disablement benefit | 90% of wages while the disability lasts |
| Permanent disablement benefit | Monthly payment at 90% of wages, scaled to the loss of earning capacity certified by a Medical Board |
| Dependants' benefit | Monthly payment to dependants of a worker who dies from an employment injury, up to 90% of wages |
| Funeral expenses | Actual cost, up to ₹20,000; claim on Form 22 at the nearest ESIC branch office |
| Unemployment allowance (ABVKY) | 50% of wages for up to 90 days, once in a lifetime |
Example: an insured person whose average daily wage is ₹600 and who is certified sick gets sickness benefit at 70%, that is ₹420 a day, for the certified days, up to 91 days in a year.
What to carry
- Employers: the 17-digit ESIC employer code, an authorisation letter for the person visiting, contribution challans for the period, and the notice or letter you are replying to.
- Insured persons escalating a claim: insurance number or e-Pehchan card, the branch office name and any reply already received.
Call or email first: offices can tell you if a visit is needed at all, and which counter or section to go to.
Do it online instead
- ESIC IP portal: insured person details and the e-Pehchan card.
- ESIC employer portal: register employees, file monthly contributions and pay challans.
- Toll-free 1800-11-2526; medical helpline 1800-11-3839.
Most office visits by employers start with a payroll mistake: a wrong wage figure in the ESI return, a missed month or an employee without an insurance number. FundRaksha HR works out ESI on every payroll run and gives you the ESI file to upload, so the monthly return matches the payslips. Check the numbers with the free ESI calculator.
