hi
definitely ESI is a mandatory scheme. it is a social security scheme from the government of india. regarding contribution if an employees salary increases in between the contribution period, then
ESI have to be paid, till the end of that contribution period. at labour level of workers ESI is most important to them for availing medical treatment, benefits etc.,. also the management will be relieved from the resposibility of giving him hospitalisation during prolonged illness of an employee, the management can tell the employee to get treated from ESI. more over the ESI will pay the accident benefit, sickness based on the employee salary per day. management need h\not have to pay their salary during their hospitalisation period. hence ESI contribution is mandatory and useful contribution for the company.
