PF Aadhaar Link: Employees’ Provident Fund Organization (EPFO) has extended the deadline to activate Universal Account Number (UAN) for new private sector employees. For this, now they will have to link their UAN and bank account with Aadhaar by 15th December. Earlier its last date was November 30, but a large number of employees had missed it. EPFO has given him another chance.

EPFO says that by activating UAN, employees will be able to avail the benefits of Employment Linked Incentive (ELI) Scheme. The organization has directed employers to update the UAN and bank account of all new employees within the stipulated time frame.
