Phased Programme for Implementation of ESI Scheme for the year 2015-2016 (Revised) and 2016-2017

Posted by & filed under Esic-Circulars.

The ESI Scheme is being implemented area-wise in a phased manner. As per
the provisions of ESI Act, the administration of medical care rests with the concerned State Governments. Accordingly, a phased programme for implementing the scheme is formulated every year in consultation with the State Govts., Directors of Medical Services and the Regional Directors of ESI Corporation. As per practice, this year also, proposals for preparation of phased programme for the year 2015-2016 (Revised) and 2016-2017 were called for from all the State Govts.The phased programme has been prepared based on the proposals received from the State Governments and from the Regional Directors.

Arrangements for medical care may be made by setting up of separate
dispensaries or through IMP Clinics. Areas having Jess than 1000 employees have not been included in the phased programme. However, in case the scheme can be implemented in such areas located in the periphery of existing implemented areas by attaching them with existing dispensary, the Corporation would welcome such proposals.

Pls refer to the Month wise year wise Phase Programme for implementation

Respective Circular is enclosed for your Kind Perusal

One Doctor Dispensary Norms for More Than 2000 IPs family units in newly Implemented Areas

Posted by & filed under Esic-Circulars.

As per ESI 2.0 reforms, the ESIC has to cover entire Districts by 2016 where it is currently functional. Further expansion will be happening due to increase in coverage by reducing threshold below 10 and also by covering construction and other unorganized sector workers. Due to this, manifold increase in the total number of IPs is expected. Based on the earlier decision of ESIC,a Sub Committee was constituted to suggest on expansion of medical facilities based on geographical necessity. It has recommended setting up of one doctor dispensary in such uncovered areas which are to be covered
In view of the above, ESI Corporation in its 167th meeting held on 18th December, 2015 has approved that in such, to be implemented new areas, if no other appropriate facility is there, ESIC should open one doctor dispensary with the following features:
A. Staff:
Doctor – 1
Nurse/ ANM- 1
Pharmacist – 1
LDC/UDC/MTS- 1
B. Area: 200 sq. mtr. (approx)
In view of the urgency of requirement, porta cabins can be used.

Industry asks Labour Minister to defer amendment in Bonus Act as Ammended

Posted by & filed under Bonus-Act.


Employers’ association AIOE has asked the government to defer the implementation of amendments in the Payment of Bonus Act to next fiscal so as to reduce financial burden on the industry, particularly small and medium businesses. 

Keeping in view both the financial and operational hardships facing the industry, All India Organisation of Employers’ (AIOE), an allied body of business chamber Ficci, has requested the government to apply the amended legislation prospectively — from finan .. 

AIOE said in a statement that the applicability of enhanced bonus from April 1, 2015 is fraught with serious financial implications for the Indian industry, particularly the Medium, Small and Micro Enterprises sector. 

 President of AIOE Sanjay Bhatia has written to Labour Secretary Shankar Aggarwal for deferring the implementation. 

The amendment bill seeks to enhancing limit of coverage for payment of bonus from the existing wage limit of Rs 10,000 to Rs 21,000 per month as well as the calculation limit for payment of bonus from Rs 3,500 to Rs 7,000 per month. 

 
n the letter, Bhatia pointed out that apart from the burden of financial implications on the MSME sector, industries will face serious functional problems as the enhanced amount of bonus has not been provided for in the balance-sheet/accounts statement of the previous year i.e. 2014-15, which ended on March 31, 2015. 

 Since, the allocable surplus for payment of bonus is calculated during the preceding accounting year, out of which bonus is paid in the succeeding financial year, the payable bonus already stands allocated for the present accounting year ending March 31, 2015,” the AIOE said . 

Moreover, many industries have already paid bonus to their employees, at the existing rate, before the start of the festival session, it said. 

The implementation of this proposal effective April 1, 2014

Detail Explanation on the Ammended Bonus Act 2015

Posted by & filed under Bonus-Act.

Dear all,

As per various email & phone calls are recd at our office in regards to interpret the new clause as inserted in the Bonus act Amended 2015


3. In section 12 of the principal Act,— (i) for the words ‘‘three thousand and five hundred rupees’’ at both the places where they occur, the words ‘‘seven thousand rupees or the minimum wage for the scheduled employment, as fixed by the appropriate Government, whichever is higher’’ shall respectively be substituted


Here with example we will explain the new calculation how the bonus is to be calculated with the new amendment in Section 12 of the Principal Act  

Old Section 

2. In section 2 of the Payment of Bonus Act, 1965 (hereinafter referred to as the principal Act), in clause (13), for the words “three thousand and five hundred rupees”, the words “ten thousand rupees” shall be substituted. 3. In section 12 of the principal Act, for the words “two thousand and five hundred rupees”, at both the places where they occur, the words “three thousand and five hundred rupees” shall respectively be substituted

Here very directly we use to calculate in a very easy method & pay Rs 3500/-

Bust in the new changes the words or the minimum wage for the scheduled employment, as fixed by the appropriate Government, whichever is higher’
Different states have different minimum wages for different category or simply Skilled/Semi Skilled/Unskilled

We will take One Lower Minimum wages Example & One higher minimu  wages Example

However, please note that the figures will be required to be looked at State wise and for the earlier period and skilled category wise on these combination basis.

Employees who were paid bonus in the year 2014 -2015 either monthly or yearly difference amount is to be paid as per the new amendment, further those employees who were not in the bracket of bonus those employees also need to pay. Bonus is to be paid on paid days. Employee who were working & left the organisation & who were eligible also need to be paid.

The Concept of old calculation i,e earned basic x8.33 and straight way employer used to pay Rs 3500 but now this concept will not work in the new amendment the minimum wage for the scheduled employment, as fixed by the appropriate Government, whichever is higher’’ is to be paid

In My view we should not be in a hurry to pay the same just wait for few days

After paying the difference  revised Form No ‘D” return is to be filed
