In exercise of powers conferred under Section 6A of the Employees’ Provident Funds & Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952, the Central Government formulated the Employees’ Pension Scheme, 1995. The Scheme provides pensionary benefits to the members upon superannuation/retirement. In addition, in case of death of member/member pensioner, the pensionary benefits are also given to widow and children/orphan/ nominee/dependent parents as per the provisions contained in the Scheme.
Subject to the provisions contained in section 16, the Employees’ Provident Funds & Miscellaneous Provisions Act., 1952 applies to scheduled establishments employing 20 or more persons. The establishments which are not coverable statutorily could be covered on voluntary basis if a majority of the employees and employer are willing. For the purpose of coverage, there is no criterion whether the establishment falls under organized or unorganised sector.
The Provident Fund handled by the Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation is known as Employees’ Provident Fund (EPF). Rate of interest on Employees’ Provident Fund for every year is recommended by the Central Board of Trustees, Employees’ Provident Fund on the basis of estimated interest income available and estimated liability on interest payment of the particular year. Assessment on above lines is made every year by the Central Board of Trustees, Employees’ Provident Fund before recommending rate of interest to the Government of India.
