If he is employed in an establishment covered by EPF, certainly he is eligible to be covered by EPF. Regards, Madhu.T.K

Hi,

The Act initially applied to factories/establishments falling within six specified industries which had completed three years of existence and employed 50 or more persons. With effect from 31-12-1960, the establishments employing 20 or more persons were also brought under the purview of the Act.

The Central Government has residual powers to apply this act to any establishment employing less than twenty employees. By virtue of these provisions, the Employees' Provident Fund Scheme has been extended to Cinema theaters employing five or more persons, w.e.f. 1-10-1984 . Also there is a provision for voluntary application of the Act to any establishment upon joint request from the employer and majority of its employees, to whom it does not apply otherwise.

An establishment to which this Act applies shall continue to be governed by this Act notwithstanding that the number of persons employed therein at any time falls below twenty.

Presently an employee at the time of joining the employment and getting wages upto Rs.6500/- is required to become a member. Now an employee is eligible for membership of fund from the very first date of joining a covered establishment.

For your information.

Warmest Regards,

Hi jyoti
All employee having Basic+DA =< Rs.6500.00 is covered under EPF act and it is mandatory for employer to deduct PF contributions. As per my knowledge if any employee who is covered under EPF act earlier but now his Basic+ DA is greater than Rs.6500.00 everthan he/she is covered under EPF act.
Dear seniors pl. correct if I am wrong.

Dear Renuka
If you fill form 11 then you will exempt from employer share in PF for employees having Basic+DA >6500/-.
seniors are requested to correct me if the above information is wrong, because this fact has been told to me in a formal group discussion.
