Director General’s Message

Anil Kumar Agarwal, IAS

Director General, ESIC

It is heartening to inform that ESI Scheme is completing 61 years on

24th February, 2013.

ESIC touches and transforms millions of lives. A touch that evokes a sense

of care and compassion, safety and security. ESIC touches every facet of

beneficiaries' lives and protects them from contingencies. The number of

Insured Persons is increasing rapidly since last couple of years which

reflects the positive response ESI Scheme is receiving from its

stakeholders. It is our constant endeavour to improve the quality of services being provided to

the IPs – our VIPs. The Corporation has always been devising new tools and forums to make the

organization more responsive, sensitive and efficient. I would like to mention two major

developments.

The Suvidha Samagam is being implemented with renewed enthusiasm. It is going to empower

the employers and insured persons tremendously. The Suvidha Samagam has been conceived

as a platform where the grievances of the stakeholders are redressed promptly, suggestions are

received and greater awareness about few lesser known benefits of ESIC is generated. Suvidha

Samagam shall immensely felicitate the stakeholders in bolstering the services of ESIC.

Another notable development of ESIC is distribution of Pehchan Card, which carries the

promise of quality healthcare and assurance of social security. Pehchan Card is portable across

the country. IPs can avail facilities of ESI Scheme 'anywhere, anytime' in India with two Pehchan

Cards, one for himself and another for his/ her family. The Insurance no. marked on Pehchan

Card is permanent and remains valid even on change of employment/employer.

This magazine has covered various other aspects of ESIC operation as well. I trust, it will benefit

all the stakeholders.

Joint Direcator (PR)

We are, at ESIC, committed to effectively implement the

provisions of ESI Act in letter and spirit. It has been our

constant endeavour to provide hassle-free services to

the stakeholders. Towards achieving this goal, ESIC is

relentlessly expanding its services both in term of

volume and penetration among the beneficiaries apart

from executing innovative activities.

One of such flagship activity is Outreach Programme that was conducted in a

massive scale throughout seven states in the country. The objectives were to

create mass awareness and awakening about various ESIC benefits apart

from enhancing corporate brand image of ESIC amongst the beneficiaries

and stakeholders in the prominent industrial belts. The unique benefits of

these programme were reaching out to the beneficiaries in remote pockets

and providing them with an interactive forum. The colossal task has been

concluded with flying colours. The experience has been really enriching,

which would help us to frame our future course of action.

Recently, we have observed ESIC Fortnight starting from its Foundation Day,

24th February to 10th March, 2013. As we all know, the Day signified the 61st

Anniversary of implementation of ESI Scheme, the Corporation made it a

point to celebrate the day meaningfully with activities like organizing

seminars/ workshops/ health check-up camps, meeting with dependant

benefit beneficiaries, clearing pending benefits, etc.

ESIC is constantly working towards further promoting the popularity,

accessibility and success of the scheme.

FOREWORD

he outreach programmes were aimed at reaching out to the beneficiaries at the prominent industrial belts Tof the country and disseminating information about the ESIC benefits. In a nutshell, the objectives of

outreach programmes were to bridge the knowledge gap to bring maximum beneficiaries under ESIC umbrella.

The outreach programmes helped in increasing the visibility of ESIC and its benefit schemes around the country.

BACKGROUND

SI Corporation has always been committed not Eonly to provide various benefits to its

stakeholders, but also to reach out to them through

various information dissemination methods like TV,

Radio, Print, Outdoor and Road Shows etc. During

the Diamond Jubilee Year (2011-12), the PR Branch

organized a series of contact/ out-reach programmes

in the states of Kerala, Gujarat, Rajasthan, Delhi and

Haryana, which were appreciated a lot and found to

be more informative by our stakeholders i.e.

employees & employers and field offices of ESIC.

These road shows made visits to the industrial areas/

industrial premises/ areas of habitation of the workers

and created a lot of awareness about the ESI Scheme

and the benefits available under this Scheme.

Seeing the good response of these outreach/ one-to-

one contact programmes, ESIC had started again

these outreach programmes in Chhattisgarh, Odisha,

Jharkhand, Bihar, Eastern U.P. (SRO Lucknow & SRO,

Varanasi), Central U.P. (areas under RO, Kanpur) and

Madhya Pradesh.

Natak, distribution of collaterals, display units in

mobile vans. Many commercial cities of Jharkhand

like Jamshedpur, Ranchi, Ramgarh, Bokaro, Dhanbad,

address their grievances. Direct interaction helped

people to attain solutions to their queries. The

audience widely appreciated and applauded these

FOREWORDS

piritual leaders act on us not by physical violence, Smiracle mongering or spell binding. A true teacher

does not assume a false responsibility. Even if the pupil

takes a wrong turn, he would only counsel but not

compel him to turn back, if such a procedure should

interfere with his individual freedom of choice. Because

even error is a condition of growth. The teacher

encourages the pupil's early steps even as the father

does the tottering steps o the child. He stretches out a

hand to help, when he trips but he leaves it to the

disciple to choose his path and control his steps. The

conflict between the doctrine of human freedom and

that of predestination has roused much discussion in

Europe and India. Freedom of the will and human effort

play a chief part in man's salvation, though it may need

the support of God's grace. Whence, the predestined

must strive after good works and prayer because

through these means predestination is most certainly

fulfilled and therefore predestination can be furthered

by creatures, but it cannot be impeded by them. Man

has the freedom to refuse the grace offered to him by

God. It is God's intention to offer grace to man but only

those who prepare themselves for its reception by their

conduct. Since freedom of the will is God's command,

even God has no direct influence on man's decision.

Man can cooperate with God's grace but he can also

refrain from it.

SELF IN THE MIRROR

Our unborn nature and its fateful compulsion are

regulated by the Divine who dwells in our hearts and

guides and constrains our development. The power that

determines events is not, as in a blind, unfeeling,

unthinking will to which we give the name of Fate,

Destiny or Chance. The spirit that rules the cosmos, the

Lord who presides over the evolution of the cosmic

plane, is seated also in the heart of every being and will

not let him rest.

MIND THROUGH THE PRIZM

The Supreme is the inmost self of our existence. All life

is a movement of the rhythm of His life and our powers

and acts are derived from him. If we do not, even then

the truth will prevail. Sooner or later we will yield to the

purpose of God but in the meanwhile there is no

compulsion. The Supreme desire our free-operation

when beauty and goodness are born without travail and

effortlessly. When we become transparent media for

the light of God, He uses us for His work. Worry about

daily needs, about earning and spending money,

disturbs meditation and takes us away from the life of

Sh. T.K. BhattacharyyaCommissioner (P&A)

The Alchemy of Success

the spirit. So the question of free from desire and

anxiety born of it, from greed and fear. The thinking of

freedom from longing for possessions is a spiritual state

and not a material condition. We must control the

appetite for possession; free ourselves from the tyranny

of belongings. One cannot hear God's voice, if one is

restless and self-centered, if one is dominated by

feelings of pride, self-will or possessiveness. The Gita

points out the true happiness in inward. Different

spiritual books invites out attention to the manner of

our life, the state of human consciousness, which does

not depend on the outward machinery of life. The body

may die and the world pass away but the life in spirit

endures. Our treasures are not the things of the world

that perish but the knowledge and love of God that

endure. We must get out of the slavery to things to gain

the glad freedom of spirit.

For developing the technique of mental discipline on

the lines of Patanjali's Yoga Sutra is propagated. Its main

purpose is to raise our consciousness from its ordinary

waking condition to higher levels until it attains union

with the Supreme. The human mind is ordinarily turned

outwards. Absorption in the mechanical and material

sides of life leads to a misbalanced condition of

consciousness. Chances are if you are like most other

people living in any industrialized country anywhere in

the world. You may suffer from constant fatigue, rarely

sleep well, or continue to gain weight. This state burns

out vigor. Vigor is a three tire sustained mood state

characterized by physical energy, mental acuity, and

emotional well being. When it comes to improving our

well being, we often hear limited one dimensional

advice that focuses on a single aspect of health.

THE SCIENCE OF SOUND BODY & MIND

There are four pillars of health i.e. (1) Manage Oxidation

(2) Control Inflammation (3) Stabilize Glucose (4)

balance stress hormones. The four pillar of health needs

to be maintained properly unless we fully turn out and

vigor is totally lost. The simple definition of oxidation is

that it describes what happens when oxygen combines

with another substance. On a somewhat more technical

level, oxidation refers to the loss of at least one electron

when two or more substances interact. These electrons

are lost when highly reactive oxygen molecules called

free radicals. Antioxidant refer to such nutrients as

vitamins 'C' and 'E' among others that help protect the

body from these free radicals. Free radicals are highly

reactive and potentially damaging because they have

an unpaired electron that wants to pair with another

electron. Unfortunately, free radicals often try to take

that needed electron from proteins and lipids in the

cells, creating microscopic damage to cellular structures

and leading to tissue dysfunction. Perhaps even worse

than the direct damage to DNA and cellular structure is

that damage in one part of the cell can set off a chain

reaction of damage that can be propagated from one

part of the cell to another, just as a campfire spark jumps

from tree to tree in a forest and leads to wildfire. Free

radicals are not necessarily bad a certain amount of

cellular damage is actually glucose transport,

mitochondrial genesis, and muscle hypertrophy.

However, unchecked excessive free-radical activity is

what leads to cellular damage oxidation and the cycle of

inflammation and tissues dysfunction that follows.

Manage oxidation is required to increase vigor of the

body. The trick to fighting those free radicals, as with so

many other aspect of health is to find the right balances

specifically, the right balance of antioxidants. Best

approach is to eat five to ten servings of brightly colored

fruits and vegetables throughout the day. Brighter is

better, with each color group representing a major class

of antioxidants. Orange, carrots, red tomatoes,

blueberries, and purple grapes. Try to get a few serving

of each colour group every day, because even though a

particular color indicates a predominant family of

antioxidant other antioxidant nutrients, each fruit or

vegetable choice also contains hundreds of other

antioxidant nutrients that work together to deliver

balanced protection against free radicals.

Control of inflammation is also required to maintain the

vigor of the body. The word inflammation is derived

from the Latin inflamer meaning to set on fire because

an injury or infection is typically red, warm and painful.

Pain and inflammation are normal body processes.

Without them you would literally not be able to survive

for very long. Pain is a signal to your body that damage

is occurring, and you need to stop doing whatever is

causing that damage. Inflammation is a process

controlled by the immune system that protects your

body from invading bacteria and viruses, but this

process also helps regulate heart function, blood flow,

and many vital functions. Maintaining a normal balance

of pain signals and inflammation is critical to good

health and vigor. The normal process of inflammation

helps dismantle and recycle older tissues that have

become damages or worn out or that simply need

repair. This process is called turnover or normal

inflammation, and it occurs when older tissue is

replaced with newer tissue. Before the age of thirty or so

this normal turnover process is perfectly balanced for

every bit of tissue that is damaged and removed,

another similar (or greater) bit is put in its place. Under

ordinary circumstances we always make our tissue

stronger and more resilient. After about age thirty,

however, the turnover process becomes somewhat less

efficient with passage of time. This causes a very slight

loss of healthy tissue and we continue to break down

and to remove some tissues. But the amount of healthy

tissue added back is just a little but less than it should be.

As the passage of the age, the turnover process

becomes less and less efficient, and our body's ability to

heal itself from injury is reduced. This imbalance in

tissue turnover and the normal inflammation process is

the primary cause of the loss of flexibility, vigor, and the

various other issues. The efficient tissues tend to

encounter as they get older. If the pace of repair fails to

keep up with the pace of destruction, then the seawall

fails, and the ocean comes rushing in (leading to tissue

destruction and dysfunction). We need to maintain the

integrity of the seawall by keeping up with repair and

maintenance but we cannot do that if the ocean is

continually crashing down on us. A plethora of scientific

and medical evidence demonstrates how to use diet,

exercise, and supplementation to clam the ocean and to

accelerate tissue repair. It is all about all question of

balance.

ENDNOTE

It is essential to reduce fatigue, left depression, physical

or mental tension and to avoid dualities, cancer and

heart disease. It is essential to reduce stress levels and

feeling up a sense of contentment in the life. We should

remember that success means successful living. When

you are peaceful, happy, joyous, and doing what you

love to do is success. A successful person possesses

great psychological and spiritual understanding. The

idea of success contains all the elements of success.

Repeat the word, success, to yourself frequently with

faith and conviction and you will be under a

subconscious compulsion to succeed. The power of our

subconscious mind is beyond all measures. It inspires

us and guides us. Our subconscious mind controls our

heartbeat and circulation of our blood. Subconscious

mind controls all the vital process and function of the

body. He thinks, answers to all the problems. So leave

behind worries, miseries and live to a joyous and

successful person.

b) Learning a new set of expectations, behaviors and

attitudes.

c) Creating a set of values and enabling yourself to

know when negative actions have become a bad

habit.

d) Assessing your needs and taking action for what

you wish to accomplish without upsetting

yourself.

e) One's Life may get better when he or she invests in

its success and not its failure.

f) One should pay close attention to his/her words,

thoughts and feelings.

g) When one decides that the happiness is worth

doing, one will not accept the thought of losing.

h) Let the thought and attitude lead you to become

that you expect and never underestimate your

ability!

i) To achieve success think of your mind as your

garden, whatever you plant in it, the same things

grow in life, if you plant positive hopeful

thoughts, constantly feeding and nourishing

them, your life will be positive and confident. Bad

habits, like weeds, have to be managed and

weeded out and replaced by the thoughts of

wellness and prosperity.

j) It is never too late to unlearn a bad habit!

After reviewing his acts and deeds, thoughts and

happiness one would really love the idea of

unlearning that is not useful any more or is

unsupported or is no longer relevant in today's world.

One eminent author has said that "the illiterate of the

twenty-first century will not be those who cannot

read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn

and re-learn."

In this time of drastic change, it is the unlearner who

inherits the future. And our ability to open the future

will depend not on how well we learn anymore but on

how well we are able to unlearn.

The difficulty lies, not in new ideas, but in escaping

from the old ones, which ramify into the corners of

our minds.

Several times while talking, while behaving, while

dealing with others we find that we feel to understand

or appreciate the words and ideas of others. It is an

acceptable fact that every situation has more than

one option and all human beings in given conditions/

situations think differently and react differently. One

must learn to appreciate the opinion of the others;

may be at times, that they are far better than you

think. It is, therefore, necessary that openness of mind

is desirable at all stages of our behaviour and conduct

and we must review our conduct and behaviour with

passage of time. We must learn and unlearn the

situation of self imposed thoughts and values. It may

be that we are in a fog where we cannot see the world

clearly. Here is a small piece of verse that clarifies the

importance of unlearning.

"when I was a young man, I wanted to change the

world.

I found it was difficult to change the world, so I tried to

change my nation.

When I found I could not change the nation, I began

to focus on my town, I could not change the town and

as an older man, I tried to change my family.

Now, as an old man, I realize the only thing I can

change is myself, and suddenly I realize that if long

ago I had changed myself, I could have made an

impact on my family.

My family and I could have made an impact on our

town.

Their impact could have changed the nation and I

could indeed have changed the world."

I conclude by saying "only the hand that erases can

write the true thing."

uman being is a social animal. Human being has Htremendous power to learn, acquire knowledge

imbibe several habits, practices and virtue from the

family, society, environment and Media. Knowingly or

unknowingly one picks up several unwanted habits

and practices from various sources. It is, therefore,

necessary to shed the negatives acquired from time

to time.

A Saint having deep knowledge of the Bhagawad

Gita, was invited for a talk in one of the ESIC offices

and was requested to deliver something important

from his vast knowledge of spirituality that is relevant

and useful to a layman. During his lecture he advised,

that a person should review his acts and deeds on

merit and righteousness, revisit his thoughts over an

issue and then only should act on for accomplishment

of his actions.

It can, therefore, be summarized that every individual

is required re-visit his acts, deeds and habits and push

out what is unnecessary, irrelevant or redundant. It is

here that 'Rule of Unlearning' is required to be learnt.

Unlearning has been defined as 'moving away from

something negative to positive'. It means intending

to let go of what we have already learned or acquired.

It is not about right or wrong, it is about being open to

exploring something that lies underneath judgment,

underneath the right and the wrong.

In spirituality, we talk about liberation or freeing

oneself from the bondage; unlearning the

conditioned or acquired behaviors and reaching for

the higher truth. It has been said that 'Truth is a

pathless land' and focused on freeing us from the

conditioned responses. The process of unlearning is

about liberation or freedom from the conditioning or

from the known. Learning is used as acquisition of

knowledge or information. In Vedanta, they talk

about 'para vidya' and 'apara vidya'. One is learning

about the manifested external world and learning to

manage and deal with what is outside of you. The

other is about what is inside of you and knowing

yourself and exploring who you are and what you are.

In other words- 'learning is about objective

knowledge and unlearning is about subjective

knowledge'. Unlearning what is learned so that you

are open to learning 'what is unknown' and to

experience it as a path that interests many people. It

could also be a behavioral pattern or a habit or a

mental construct too. Unlearning could also be

described as stripping the existing paint of a wall so

that new paint sticks. Another metaphor that,

describes of unlearning is 'removing the old plants in

the farm so that you can grow new.

Some people who have high cognitive focus do not

like the word 'unlearning' at all, however the focus is

on emptying and creating an opening. Once

openness is experienced, learning and creativity

become easier.

UNLEARNING BAD HABITS

One can desire to unlearn so many negatives and

irrelevant things from his life e.g.,

1. Anger and resentment need to be replaced with a

positive and forgiving attitude.

2. Focusing on relevant listening and speaking.

3. Learning a new skill, focus on the outcome you

wish to reach and not on how difficult the learning

process may be.

4. Focus on what you wish to become and not on

what you are today!

5. Be grateful for what you have rather than be upset

for what you don't have. No one on earth gets

what they want in life. The trick is not to get upset,

or let thinking become paralyzed.

6. By choosing to fix a habit of getting upset, you

develop a strong mind-set and allow you self to

see a positive result. Become aware of the little

and big things in life that causes you to react

negatively. Then create a set of guidelines that will

help you to size up certain situations based on

past unfavorable experiences.

For unlearning self-imposed habits, the following

steps may be helpful-

a) Being aware of repetitious actions that are

harmful to your well being.

he Employees' State Insurance Act, 1948 is a social Tsecurity legislation that provides complete medical care

and cash benefits in the contingencies of Sickness, Maternity,

Disablement, death due to employment injury &

Unemployment to beneficiaries who come from the

organized sector working class families in the lower wage

bracket of the society. The Employees' State Insurance

Corporation runs a unique social security scheme which has

the feature of an insurance organization as well as service

provider for health related needs of the insured persons

under the scheme.

The Act applies to any premises/precincts, where 10 or more

persons are employed Employees of the aforesaid categories

of factories and establishments, drawing

wages upto Rs.15,000/- a month, are entitled

to social security cover under the ESI Act.

Covered employees contribute 1.75% of the

wages, whereas, the employers contribute

4.75% of the wages, payble to their employees.

Employees earning upto Rs.100/- a day are

exempted from payment of their share of

contribution. The provisions of the Act have

been extended to different classes of

establishments by most of the States. The ESI

Scheme is the only scheme which offers comprehensive

medical care as well as cash benefits which cannot be

matched by any private insurance company. This is the only

scheme where there is no upper limit on medical expenditure

of the beneficiaries. The Corporation is always striving to

improve the scale of benefits being provided to the

beneficiaries both in quantitative terms as well as quality wise.

For example, ESIC is now making cash payments to the

Permanent Disablement Beneficiaries and Dependants

Beneficiaries directly in their bank account through ECS

(Electronic Clearing System). The Corporation also provides

Unemployment Allowance under Rajiv Gandhi Sharmik

Kalyan Yojana to the workers who go out of employment

involuntarily for upto one year. The ESI Corporation is also

providing financial assistance in upgrading their skills with a

view to get re-employment for the unemployed workers.

For overcoming the shortage of medical manpower and

improving the medical services in ESI Hospitals, ESIC has set

up medical colleges, nursing colleges, dental colleges and

training schools for other para-medical staff in ESIC/ESI

Hospitals.

ESIC has made its significant presence felt at the International

forum of the International Social Security Association (ISSA)

by winning awards (03 Certificate of Merit) in “ISSA Good

Practice Award, ASIA and Pacific Competition-

2012” held at Seoul, Republic of Korea recently.

The computerization project of ESIC

christened as Project 'Panchdeep' is a very

progressive project and is one of the largest

computerization project in the Govt. Sector of

our country. This is helping to provide cash

benefits to beneficiaries in a paperless &

hassle free manner and is going to network all

the service dissemination outlets of ESI

Scheme. With these initiatives & policies, the

ESI Corporation is touching new heights,

improving the facilities being provided to the beneficiaries

and improving its image.

Today, after 61 years of its beginning, ESIC is serving and

providing medical benefit to around 6.63 crores beneficiaries.

The Corporation has the largest team of medical and para-

medical personnel in India and also has one of the largest

medical infrastructures in the world. It has huge infrastructure

of 150 Hospitals, 1463 ESI Dispensaries/ISM Units, 804
