60 lakh unorganised workers from Punjab registered on e-Shram portal: Govt
Around 60 lakh unorganised workers, including 22,272 platform based gig workers, have been registered on the e-Shram portal in Punjab, the government said on Monday.
The Ministry of Labour and Employment launched the e-Shram portal (eshram.gov.in) in 2021 for the creation of a comprehensive National Database of Unorganised Workers (NDUW) seeded with Aadhaar.
The portal is meant to register and support the unorganised workers by providing them with a Universal Account Number (UAN) on a self-declaration basis.
