The Scheme protects all employees engaged on a monthly remuneration not exceeding Rs. 6500/- in a factory/establishment to which the Act applies. Persons employed for wages on any work connected with the administration of the factory or establishment or any part, department or branch thereof or purchase of raw materials, or distribution or sale of the product of a factory or establishment are also covered. Mines, Railway Running Sheds, Naval, Military and Air Force Workshops and specified seasonal factories are excluded. The scheme also provides full medical cover to the dependants of insured persons. In the event of death of an insured person due to employment injury dependants become eligible to cash benefit.

Once ESI scheme is there, the establishment is not required to get any Life Insurance cover for these category of staff.
It is another matter, if the organization itself, voluntarily gets some Group Insurance scheme for its employees. But absolutely there is no legal compulsion.

With due respects, i wish to inform you that:-
Salary/wages limit for coverage under the ESI Act, is Rs.15000/- per month not Rs.6500/-.
and
Rs.6500/- limit is applicable on the epf act.
Thanks
