These items-PF,ESIC are all govt mandated welfare measures.The employee cannot surrender these benefits and ask for cash instead.
Employee may want to increase cash in hand but organisations are precluded in accepting such requests in writing or attested and notarised etc.
His written declaration has no standing in law.

The only way these schemes can be avoided is if the company has a better benefits scheme on its own. I dont know if any recent amendments have taken off this provision also, anyway there is no value for an employee request which is against the law of the land.

Dear colleague, Indian Labour laws prohibit 'Contracting out' of the provisions of the Acts. So the answer to your question is plain 'no' Regards, Vinayak Nagarkar HR-Consultant
