ESIC has issued directives for urgent implementation of Aadhar seeding for Insured Persons (IP), ESIC employees and pensioners

Based on the observation of drastic and unacceptable decline in daily Aadhar seeding count across all  regional offices and sub-regional offices, the Insurance Commissioner (ICT), the Employees State  Insurance Corporation (ESIC) has issued direction in file no. I-21013/1/2022-ICT-Part(1) dated October 21, 2024, directing concerned offices to take immediate corrective actions in this regard.

ESIC HQ has devised the following provisions to address the issue:

1. Aadhar seeding through IP portal.
2. Aadhar seeding through employer’s portal. The employers are empowered to generate new insurance numbers for employees using Aadhar through OTP or biometric verification.
3. Facility of bulk Aadhar seeding for employers
4. Assistance from ESIC branches and facilities
5. AAA+ mobile app – Convenient Aadhar seeding through OTP or face identification.
