The Minister for Labour and Employment will launch an e-Shram portal.
About e-Shram portal:
- The e-Shram portal is a database of unorganised sector workers. The portal aims to register 38 crore unorganised workers, such as construction labourers, migrant workforce, street vendors and domestic workers among others.
- After registration, the workers will be issued an e-Shram card containing a 12 digit unique number, which will help the government in including them in social security schemes.
Registration Process on e-Shram Portal:
- A worker can register on the portal using his/her Aadhaar card number and bank account details, apart from filling in other necessary details like date of birth, home town, mobile number and social category.
- Moreover, a national toll-free number — 14434 — will also be launched to assist and address the queries of workers seeking registration on the portal.
