Among the newly joined members, the highest enrolment is registered in the age group of 18-21 years with 2.35 lakh members, followed by the age group of 22-25 years with 1.94 lakh members. The age groups of 18-25 years constituted 56.60 per cent of the total new members added during the month. “This age-wise comparison of payroll data indicates that the majority of the members joining the organised sector workforce of the country are first-time job seekers,” the Ministry of Labour and Employment said. The data also highlighted that approximately 10.09 lakh members re-joined EPFO membership. These members switched their jobs and re-joined the establishments covered under EPFO and opted to transfer their accumulations instead of applying for final settlement thus, extending their social security protection.

Of these, 1.91 lakh female members are the new joinees. This is around 25.16 per cent addition of all the new joinees.
