7. Introduction
Social Security Acts and Rights of the Government
1.1 What is Social Security?
Social security is primarily a social insurance program providing social protection or
protection against socially recognized conditions, including poverty, old age,
disability, unemployment and others. Social security may refer to:
social insurance, where people receive benefits or services in recognition of
contributions to an insurance program. These services typically include
provision for retirement pensions, disability insurance, survivor benefits and
unemployment insurance.
income maintenance, mainly the distribution of cash in the event of
interruption of employment, including retirement, disability and
unemployment
services provided by administrations responsible for social security. In
different countries this may include medical care, aspects of social work and
even industrial relations.
More rarely, the term is also used to refer to basic security, a term roughly
equivalent to access to basic necessities—things such as food, clothing,
housing, education, money, and medical care.
The right to social security is recognized in the Universal Declaration of Human
Rights and the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights.
1.2 Right to social security
The right to social security is recognized as a human right and establishes the right
to social security assistance for those unable to work due to sickness, disability,
maternity, employment injury, unemployment or old age. Social security systems
provided for by states consist of social insurance programs, which provide earned
benefits for workers and their families by employment contributions, and/or social
assistance programs which provide non-contributory benefits designed to provide
minimum levels of social security to persons unable to access social insurance.
1.3 Universal Declaration of Human Rights
The Universal Declaration of Human Rights recognizes the right to social security in
articles 22, which states that:
"Everyone, as a member of society, has the right to social security and is entitled to
realization, through national effort and international co-operation and in
7

8. accordance with the organization and resources of each State, of the economic,
social and cultural rights indispensable for his dignity and the free development of
his personality."
And article 25, which enshrines the right to an adequate standard of living, stating
that:
"(1) Everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well-
being of himself and of his family, including food, clothing, housing and medical
care and necessary social services, and the right to security in the event of
unemployment, sickness, disability, widowhood, old age or other lack of livelihood
in circumstances beyond his control. (2) Motherhood and childhood are entitled to
special care and assistance. All children, whether born in or out of wedlock, shall
enjoy the same social protection."
1.4 International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights
Article 9 of the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights
(ICESCR) recognizes "the right of everyone to social security, including social
insurance." The right to social security is furthermore recognized in Article 10,
which states that "special protection should be accorded to mothers during a
reasonable period before and after childbirth. During such period working mothers
should be accorded paid leave or leave with adequate social security benefits."[4]
State parties to the ICESCR have the obligation to respect, protect and fulfill the
right to social security. In the General Comment no 19 (2007) On the Right to Social
Security the UN Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights clarified that
the right to social security as enshrined in the ICESCR encompasses:
"the right to access and maintain benefits, whether in cash or in kind, from (a) lack
of work-related income caused by sickness, disability, maternity, employment
injury, unemployment, old age, or death of a family member; (b) unaffordable
access to health care; (c) insufficient family support, particularly children and adult
dependents"
Social security is understood to encompass the following nine branches: adequate
health service, disability benefits, old age benefits, unemployment benefits,
employment injury insurance, family and child support, maternity benefits,
disability protections, and provisions for survivors and orphans. State parties to the
ICESCR have the obligation to fulfill the right to social security by adopting "the
necessary measures, including the implementation of a social security scheme".
State parties must ensure that "the social security system will be adequate,
accessible for everyone and will cover social risks and contingencies". State parties
also have an obligation to facilitate the right to social security by sufficiently
"recognizing this right within the national political and legal systems, preferably by
8

9. way of legislative implementation" and "adopting a national social security
strategy".

1.6 Employee State Insurance Scheme
Employees' State Insurance scheme (ESI, Hindi: )
is a self-financing social security and health insurance scheme for Indian workers.
For all regular employees earning less than 15,000 per month salary, the
employers and employees contribute a fixed percentage of the salary. This fund is
managed by the ESI Corporation, which oversees the provision of medical and other
benefits to the employees, through its large network of dispensaries and hospitals
throughout India.
ESI was started in India in 1948, initially for factory workers. It now provides social
security to employees from all industries, covering 12.5 million employees working
with about 400,000 employers. Total beneficiaries as of 2008-09 are above 50
million. The employees registered under the scheme are entitled to medical
treatment for themselves and their dependants, unemployment cash benefit in
certain contingencies, and maternity benefit in case of women employees. In case
of employment-related disablement or death, there is provision for a disablement
benefit and a family pension, respectively.
Outpatient medical facilities are available in 1398 ESI dispensaries, and through
1678 empanelled private medical practitioners. Inpatient care is available in 145 ESI
Hospitals and 42 Hospital annexes; a total of 19387 beds. In addition, several state
government hospitals also have beds for exclusive use of ESI Beneficiaries. Cash
benefits can be availed in any of 783 ESI centres located throughout India.
Recent years have seen increasing role of information technology in ESI, with the
introduction of Pehchan smart cards in 'Project Panchdeep', India's largest e-
governance project. In addition to insured workers, poor families eligible under the
Rashtriya Swasthya Bima Yojana can also avail facilities in ESI hospitals and
dispensaries. There are plans to open medical, nursing and paramedical schools in
ESI hospitals. Director General - Shri C.S. Kedar, IAS Financial Commissioner - Shri

13. 2.1 Social security legislations in India
Social Security for employees is a concept which over time has gained importance in
the industrialized countries. Broadly, it can be defined as measures providing
protection to working class against contingencies like retirement, resignation,
retrenchment, maternity, old age, unemployment, death, disablement and other
similar conditions.
With reference to India, the Constitution levies responsibility on the State to
provide social security to citizens of the country. The State, here, discharges duty as
an agent of the society in order to help those who are in adverse situations or
otherwise needs protection owing to above mentioned contingencies. Article 41, 42
and 43 of the Constitution do talk about the same. Also, the Concurrent List of the
Constitution of India mentions issues like-
Social Security and insurance, employment and unemployment.
Welfare of Labour including conditions of work, provident funds, employers'
liability, workmen's compensation, invalidity and old age pension and
maternity benefits.
Drawing from the Constitution of India and ILO Convention on Social Security1
(ratified by India in 1964), some of the legislations that have been enacted for social
security are Employees’ State Insurance Act, 1948, Workmen’s Compensation Act,
1923, Employees’ Provident Fund and Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952,
Maternity Benefit Act, 1961, Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972, etc. A social security
division has also been set up under the Ministry of Labour and Employment which
mainly focuses on framing policies for social security for the workers of organized
sector.
Apart from above mentioned enactments, since the last decade the government
has initialized efforts to extend the benefits to the unorganized sector too.
Legislative enactments like the National Rural Employment Guarantee Act, 2005,
Unorganized Sector Workers’ Social Security Act, 2008 and the Domestic Workers
(Registration, social security and welfare) Act, 2008 are examples of the same.
13

14. The National Rural Employment Guarantee Act, 2005 aim at curbing unemployment
or unproductive employment in rural areas. It focuses on enhancing livelihood
security to rural people, as it guarantees productive wage employment for at least
100 days in a year. The Fiscal budget, this year, has also hiked the allocation to its
job guarantee scheme NREGA by 144% and also the beneficiaries under the scheme
would, henceforth, be entitled for a minimum wage of Rs. 100 per day.2
Also, there is Unorganized Workers’ Social Security Act, 2008, which targets at
extending social security measures to unorganized sector workers. The law thereby
aims at extending to workers in informal sector status and benefits similar to that of
formal sector workers.
On the same lines, Domestic Workers Act, 2008 has also been enacted. The
legislation aims at regulating payment and working conditions of domestic workers
and entitles every registered domestic worker to receive pension, maternity
benefits and paid leave that is a paid weekly off.
These legislations for organized and unorganized sector workers need to be
bestowed attention because this will help improve their productivity and industrial
relations and thus ensure development of the country.
2.2 Why do we need social security ?
Social Security protects not just the subscriber but also his/her entire family
by giving benefit packages in financial security and health care. Social Security
schemes are designed to guarantee at least long-term sustenance to families when
the earning member retires, dies or suffers a disability. Thus the main strength of
the Social Security system is that it acts as a facilitator - it helps people to plan their
own future through insurance and assistance. The success of Social Security
schemes however requires the active support and involvement of employees and
employers.
As a worker/employee, you are a source of Social Security protection for
yourself and your family. As an employer you are responsible for providing
adequate social security coverage to all your workers.
2.3 Synopsis of Social Security Laws
The principal social security laws enacted in India are the following:
(i) The Employees’ State Insurance Act, 1948 (ESI Act) which covers factories and
establishments with 10 or more employees and provides for comprehensive
medical care to the employees and their families as well as cash benefits during
sickness and maternity, and monthly payments in case of death or disablement.
14

15. (ii) The Employees’ Provident Funds & Miscellaneous Provisions Act,
1952 (EPF & MP Act) which applies to specific scheduled
factories and establishments employing 20 or more employees
and ensures terminal benefits to provident fund, superannuation
pension, and family pension in case of death during service.
Separate laws exist for similar benefits for the workers in the coal
mines and tea plantations.
(iii) The Workmen’s Compensation Act, 1923 (WC Act), which requires
payment of compensation to the workman or his family in cases
of employment related injuries resulting in death or disability.
(iv) The Maternity Benefit Act, 1961 (M.B. Act), which provides for 12
weeks wages during maternity as well as paid leave in certain
other related contingencies.
(v) The Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972 (P.G. Act), which provides 15 days
wages for each year of service to employees who have worked
for five years or more in establishments having a minimum of 10
workers.

security and welfare schemes of the firms.
42

43. Limitation
The source of collecting information was secondary data that includes
research papers and email communications and social networking sites.
Being stick with the tight schedule of the college few visits to the offices
and most of the work was done through email coordination and with the
help of social networking sites like Facebook and Google+.
The appointment with executives of the companies was a bit difficult but
thanks to software's like Skype and Yahoo Web Cam for interactive
sessions.
Thanks to software like Webex for discussing the Powerpoint
Presentations with executives as to take time from executives in the
time slot we want was a bit difficult.
43

44. Suggestions
Better to use survey sites to do the research survey data collection, as it is
always not feasible to collect data that easily without a chain of formalities
and permissions.
Better to extract parameters of research from the research papers of the
subject.
Take regular feedback from your guide , it will always give you a new
direction.
