EPFO removes the requirement of PF transfer on job changes

In 229th Meeting of Central Board of Trustees, Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO) has approved the development of centralised IT-enabled systems by the Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC). This move will allow an employee’s PF account number to remain the same even after they change their jobs. So, after the EPFO decision, PF account holders need not worry about the account transfer. The Meeting was held on November 20, 2021, at New Delhi under the chairmanship of Shri Bhupender Yadav, Union Minister for Labour & Employment, Vice-chair Shri Rameswar Teli, Minister of State for Labour & Employment, co-vice chair Shri Sunil Barthwal, Secretary (Labour & Employment) and member secretary Shri Mukhmeet S. Bhatia, Central PF Commissioner, EPFO.
