EPFO on Monday launched online registration facility for employers, a move that will help firms get employers’ code within a day.
The registration of employers and issuing of code to identify the firms has been a time consuming process so far, leading to unnecessary delays, taking up to 20-25 days.
The facility was launched here by Labour Minister Narendra Singh Tomar who said the new government is committed to providing better services to stakeholders.
Under the new facility, employers will be provided instructions for filling up the forms and the check list online. Once the registration is done, the PF (employer) code will be allotted online within a day after verification of Permanent Account Number (PAN) of the firm.
