The government is providing benefits to the poor and needy people by running various schemes. These include many types of schemes. Similarly, those who do jobs, they are also helped by the government. For example, take the Employees State Insurance Scheme ie ESIC only. This scheme is a multidimensional social security scheme, which has been designed to provide economic security to employees in the organized sector. Under this scheme, health benefits are given to the employees, due to which people associated with this scheme can get themselves treated free of cost if they fall ill. So let us know in detail about ESIC. You can learn about this in the next slides...
You can join the scheme like this:-
It is the responsibility of the employer to nominate eligible employees for employment
At the same time, to join this scheme, the employee has to give information about himself and his family. Also, a nominee has to be decided.
Then a certain amount is deducted from the salary of the employee every month, after which you can get the treatment done for free.
