INTRODUCTION

Providing social security is a constitutional obligation of the government. Employees Provident Funds and Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952 (Act 19 of 1952) is a piece of social welfare legislation, intended to provide social security to the working class, mainly in the organised sector, by establishing three Schemes, viz., the Employees Provident Fund Scheme, 1952, Employees Pension Scheme, 1995 and Employees Deposit Linked Insurance Scheme, 1976.

I created this weblog mainly to aid the employees, employers and other interested persons to know about the three schemes, benefits thereunder, legal provisions and so on.

I earnestly believe that the information contained in this weblog will be helpful to the public. I invite suggestions.
