Now download UAN, PPO and Scheme Certificate from DigiLocker, know how

The Employees Provident Fund Organization (EPFO) said its members can now access their important files through the DigiLocker service. On Saturday, the organization shared an infographic through its official Twitter account to let people know.

“Members can get UAN card, PPO and scheme certificate using DigiLocker,” EPFO ​​stated in a tweet on August 27.

In DigiLocker, all documents are accessible for download, according to the image tweeted by the organization.

The UAN is an important document that salaried employees can use to keep track of their various Employee Provident Fund (EPF) accounts.

In addition, retirees must have their 12-digit Pension Payment Order (PPO) number in order to receive their pension.

Consequently, the Employees’ Provident Fund (EPFO) issues the EPS Certificate, a document that contains information on the service history of the member of the Provident Fund.

It displays the employee’s service history, including the number of years served, as well as family and family member information that qualifies for a pension in the event of the employee’s death.

For workers employed in the organized sector, EPFO ​​administers a contributory provident fund, a pension plan, and an insurance plan.

On November 15, 1951, the Employees Provident Fund Ordinance created the EPFO. The Employees Provident Fund Act of 1952 took its place later.

DigiLocker is a flagship project of the Ministry of Electronics and IT under the “Digital India” (MeitY) agenda.

By giving the citizen’s digital document wallet access to genuine digital documents, it attempts to “digitally empower” the individual.
