As per the notification dated 1st July 2025, the Employees’ State Insurance Corporation (ESIC) has approved a Scheme to promote registration of Factories/Establishments and Employees coverable under the ESI Act, 1948. ESIC is giving the Employers another chance to get the employees of their organisation registered under the ESI Act without any fear of punitive action. The key features of SPREE are as follows:

• 1. The employers registering during the period will be treated as covered from the date of registration or the date as declared by them.
• 2. The newly registered employees shall be treated as covered from the date of their registration.
• 3. This will not have any bearing on actions taken/required under ESI Act, if any, prior to 1st July 2025.

The Scheme will remain open for a period of six months from 1st July 2025 to 31st December 2025. It is advisable for the employers to avail this one-time opportunity as all the necessary support may be extended to employers in online registration of their units and employees.
