From an organization’s perspective, what are the critically essential documents / records that has to be maintained on a regular basis for the compliance of EPF?
There are no documents prescribed under EPF &MP Act 1952 other than the prescribed returns. However all the relevant documents relating to salary and wages and attendance are crucial to decide on the amounts of contributions payable and paid.
If an employee carries more than one UAN, and joins another organization, should the employer remit the contributions to the latest UAN? What are the remedial actions required in such a scenario from the employee and the current employer?
Using the link Direct UAN allotment by employees, individual employee can generate UAN. However, how he/she can map the PF number to that UAN. So that the employee can initiate EPF transfer /withdrawal.
