In a statement by the Labour Ministry, they stated that the ‘Employees State Insurance Corporation’ (ESIC) and ‘Employees Provident Fund Organisation’ (EPFO) will consider COVID-19 deaths as ‘injury or death during employment.’ The family members are entitled to receive a pension equivalent to 90% of the average daily wage drawn by the worker.
