EPFO all set to review withdrawal norms

Provident fund -News

Prakash Consultancy Services

March 31, 2016

The Employees Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO) board will next month review a decision to restrict withdrawals amid widespread criticism. On Tuesday, union representatives flagged the concern at the meeting of the central board of trustees and suggested that the move should be rolled back, said two sources who attended the deliberations.

“The intent was different when the proposal was discussed. But what has been implemented is completely different and against the interests of subscribers,” said a source who demanded a reversal.

Sources said with manpower restructuring consuming a bulk of the time, labour miniter Bandaru Dattatreya suggested the issue be discussed threadbare at the next board meeting. “It is an executive decision, which can be easily reversed,” said a trustee. Since early February, EPFO barred withdrawal of the employer’s contribution to PF accounts till a subscriber turned 58 years. Earlier, the entire corpus could be withdrawn if someone was unemployed for two months.

With the implementation of Unique Account Number, which allowed portability in case of a subscriber switching jobs, EPFO decided to restrict withdrawals so that subscribers had a corpus at the time of retirement which they could use. “Why should EPFO or anyone else decide how and when I withdraw?” argued a trustee, making a case for reversal of the earlier order.

EPFO to give interest on inoperative Accounts

Provident Fund Benefits

Prakash Consultancy Services

March 30, 2016

Reversing a five-year-old decision, the Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation’s top decision-making body, the Central Board of Trustees, has decided to pay interest on all inoperative EPF accounts from April 1 onwards. Inoperative EPF accounts are those that have not received any contribution from employees or employers for 36 months. The move will benefit 90 million account holders with deposits of over Rs. 27,000 crore, but it will not apply retrospectively.

Millions of organised sector employees will start receiving interest payments on their inoperative Employees’ Provident Fund (EPF) savings from April 1 this year. Inoperative EPF accounts are those where there have been no contributions by an employee or their employer for 36 months.

Reversing its five-year-old decision which barred inoperative EPF accounts from earning interest, the Central Board of Trustees (CBT), the highest decision making body of the EPF organisation, on 29.3.2016 decided to pay interest on all such accounts. The new rule, however, will not apply retrospectively, EPFO officials said.

The decision to stop the payment of interest to such accounts was taken in 2011 in order to dissuade workers from making their accounts inactive and encourage them from merging them with an active one. A move to review earlier decision comes in the backdrop of new EPF rules introduced in February, 2016 that bar employees from withdrawing their entire PF amount till they turn 58.

“Under the new rules, when one can’t withdraw the entire amount even after being jobless for two months why should not the government pay interest on the accumulated money,” DL Sachdeva, the national secretary of All India Trade Union Congress and a member of the CBT, told HT.

On April 1, 2011 an amendment to EPF rules barred interest payments to accounts inoperative for more than 36 months.

“UPA government stopped interest on inoperative accounts. Now we have taken a pro-worker decision. The UPA government, which was claiming to be a pro-worker, stopped the interest on inoperative accounts. Now we have decided to credit interest in inoperative accounts,” labour minister Bandaru Dattatreya said after the CBT meeting

TEA urges rollback of EPFO amendment

Prakash Consultancy Services

March 22, 2016

Tirupur Exporters’ Association (TEA) today urged the Union Labour Ministry to rollback the amendment stating that employers’ contribution withdrawal could only be done when the employee was 58 years, in the Employees’ ProvidentFund Organisation (EPFO).

In a letter to Minister Bandaru Dattatreya, TEA president A. Shaktivel said that the amendment has created ripplesin Tirupur knitwear garmentcluster, which employed four lakh workersdirectly, with 70 per cent of women being part of EPFO with an option for withdrawalon cessation of employment.

Further to this amendment, the employees can withdraw the PF account from their own total contribution including interest thereonup to date, but the employers’ contribution could be withdrawn only after they complete 58 years, he said.

Normally girls aged 18 joined garmentunits and left at the age of 23 / 24 before getting married.The new amendment has created an alarming situation in Tirupur as these women were now apprehensive about having to wait till they turned 58 to receivethe employer’s PF contribution, Shaktivelsaid.

Apart from this, Tirupur cluster was also receivingmigrant workers from North India, numbering about

75,000. The inflow from the northernstates was still increasing day by day, which was actuallyhelping to meet the labour shortage.

So, there was this apprehension that the amendment would restrict the inflow of workers to Tirupur cluster.

“We actually fear that the notification may trigger the exodus of labour and in such scenario, the garmentexporting units would not be in a position to immediately fill up the labour shortagegaps. This will lead to a chain reaction and ultimately the export businesswill drastically reducefrom the present

Considering the gravity of the foreseen repercussions,

TEA has urged the Minister to provide relief and remove the condition put forth in the amendment immediately. This would allow workers to get employer’s contribution when resigned, Shaktiveladded
