The Employees’ State Insurance Corporation (ESIC) launched SPREE 2025 to expand social‑security coverage and encourage voluntary registration.

One‑time amnesty: Offers a limited window for employers and workers to register with the Employees’ State Insurance scheme without penalties or retrospective inspections.
Digital registration: Employers can register through the ESIC portal, the Shram Suvidha portal or the Ministry of Corporate Affairs portal.
No retrospective demands: Employers will not face contribution demands or legal action for the period before registration, encouraging informal enterprises to join voluntarily.
Coverage of informal workers: Aims to bring contractual, temporary and unorganised workers under formal social‑security coverage.

By easing compliance, SPREE 2025 promotes labour formalisation and expands access to healthcare and social benefits.
