If the private employee lose their job then for the 2 years government will provide them financial assistance.
Now Employers will encourage Aadhar (UID) Seeding in ESIC database of their workers and their family members. Aadhaar Seeding is must to avoid de-duplication and in order to transfer assistance directly into the bank account of employees.

Aadhaar Seeding
