08-Mar-2023 (In Labour & Service Law)
Dear sir, My Brother in law demised on 17.10.2016 due to Brain Cancer. EPF & ESI were not contributed for almost 10 months. last time he went to office on feb 2016, we needed the money for his treatment so we applied for the gratuity money but we recieved the gratuity money after his death by january 2017, as he was medically not fit so he didn’t gone to office for long time but he also didn’t resigned from the company but on the company record he was not the employee of the company when he died, because we had applied for the gratuity money so the company has shown the laps and EPF were also not contributed for long time, is his wife eligible for claiming EDLI If yes how, because EPFO is asking for on roll death certificate by the employer, suggest in detail please
ALL DEPENDENTS ARE ELIGIBLE TO GET BENEFIT UNDER ESI ACT AS THEY COME UNDER THE DEFINITION OF FAMILY UNDER SECTION 2 SUB SECTION 11 OF THE ACT. Also, you are eligible for all the benefits arising out of his employment as you come under the definition of dependents under aforementioned section.
