According to the Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation’s (EPFO) tweet, subscribers of the Provident Fund (PF) need to fill the e-nomination form. The nomination is for providing social security to their families. A video demonstrating how to submit EPF/EPS nominations digitally is also attached. Nominations will help in reaping benefits provided by the EPFO.
