Through this month, regional provident fund offices have been sending out queries in a specified format to companies seeking “employment data of the proportion of SC & ST employees in total employment”.

THE MINISTRY of Labour and Employment has kicked off a survey that requires establishments contributing to the Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO), including from the private sector, to furnish information on the number of SC and ST employees in their ranks.

The survey being piloted by Niti Aayog was initially to be restricted to public sector undertakings (PSUs) but has now been extended to cover private firms. Through this month, regional provident fund offices have been sending out queries in a specified format to companies seeking “employment data of the proportion of SC & ST employees in total employment”.

Sources said the data on the number of SC/ST employees is being collated to provide them financial incentives for social security benefits. The objective of this new scheme, rolled out in consultation with the Labour Ministry, is for the Centre to eventually foot the bill for employee contribution being made by SC/ST employees towards their provident and pension funds with the EPFO. The Labour Ministry is the nodal Ministry of the EPFO.
