EPFO functions through staggered office timings, work from home | | | Early Times Report JAMMU, Jan 22: The EPFO Regional Offices in Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh are managing work during Covid-19 (third wave) through staggered office timings, work from home and team work. During the recent challenging days, when weekend lockdown was imposed, EPFO, J&K and Ladakh has managed the work effectively when many officials volunteered to work in shifts. Some proactive measure like provisions of decoction (Kaadha) and tea to all, flexi working has heled us achieve many milestones in recent months some of which are elaborated below: EPFO has started the process of issuing pension from the Offices of Jammu and Kashmir which was earlier being done from Regional Office, Amritsar. This has greatly eased the process of availing pension. In the month of January, 2022 ten PPOs have been released till now in favour of Lalit Sharma, Pankaj Kumar, Bindya Kohli, Major Singh, Bodhraj, Gulam Ahmad Bhat, Rajesh Mehta, Shinda Ram, Gori Shankar, Subash Chander Sharma. In some of the cases documents were solicited from employers and proactive action was taken to overrule flimsy observations/objection. The collection of funds in EPF Administrative Accounts has witnessed unprecedented growth in Jammu (Rs 75 lakhs in December, 2021) in Srinagar (Rs 50 lakhs in December, 2021). This positive indicator is a matter of great satisfaction for the Organization and confidence building parameter (which also exhibits that a substantial number of workers are getting benefit of social security in the Zone). The Jammu, Kashmir and Ladakh Zone has also achieved third place at pan India level in percentage of e-Nominations completed.
