PF Balance Check- If a company has 20 or more employees, then it is mandatory for the employees of the company to have a PF account. 12 percent of the employee's basic salary is deposited in the PF account. The same amount is deposited by the company as well. It is the responsibility of the company to deposit the PF money. But many times it happens that many companies do not deposit the PF money of the employees.
Any employee whose PF is being deducted should keep checking from time to time whether the company is depositing money in the PF account or not. EPFO members can check their PF balance from home. EPFO is providing the facility to customers to know their PF balance in four ways.
