Why you need ESI Registration?
PENSION COVERAGE: Besides the contribution of the employee to EPF, the employer adds an equal amount which is inclusive of Employee Pension Scheme (EPS). Therefore, EPF saves you a robust pension.
RISK COVER: Provident Fund helps the dependents of the employee by covering the financial risks they face any instances like illness, demise or retirement
SINGLE ACCOUNT: The PF account can be easily transferred while switching employments. It can be carried forward to any other place of employment instead of being closed down. This uniformity ensures that the rate of return is compounded over the years.
