[Resolved]  ESIC — Improper Behaviour and Misleading clients

Address:

Ernakulam, Kerala

I am a person from defence, Indian Navy - INS Garuda. My wife is a Pharmacist and she is working in Lakeshore Hospital, Kochi. Her ESI account is at ernakulam office, near North Railway station. My wife, Nisha had taken leaves from[protected] to[protected] as she was having Bronchitis and applied for ESI leave. I was the one who collected the ESI letter from ESI office to the hospital as well as to the ESI office. On[protected] we went to ESI hospital to collect fitness certificate but the printer was not functional hence we had given a slip stating that she is fit from[protected]. Using the same slip, she joined for work. Later on[protected], the printer was repaired and we got the fitness certificate. Again i visited the ESI hospital to submit the fitness certificate with the copy of the slip. Now they want the doctor to write on the certificate that, she was fit from[protected]. See already we are presenting the document that the Dr has given, still what is the point in writing the same again. Getting that done is not tough, but to travel that distance to submit is the issue. Since i have an ESI card, i know the rules and regulations very well. But the officer in ESI says that the rules in Indian Navy and that of their are different. If there was an online way to submit the documents would be an option? A person requesting for ESI leave, who is not well and fit - How can they submit the documents to an office which is too far say 60Km? This is not fair, to take money from employees and denying the claim. If its to deny, why this scheme is created. Or is it another Govt policy to loot money from people and give it some employees. Kindly create an online media to submit the scanned copy o[censored]nfit and fit certificate for the employees. We the people dont demand respect, but please dont pity us. Its with our money you people in the ESI organization is living!!!
