In a significant move, the Employees' Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO) has launched new digital services that empower 7.6 crore members to update personal details online. This facility eliminates the need for employer verification.

Union Labour & Employment Minister Mansukh Mandaviya introduced these services, allowing e-KYC account members to file EPF transfer claims online via Aadhaar OTP. This bypasses the previous need for employer intervention.
