Labour Ministry's eShram Portal Achieves 30 crore Registrations Milestone In 3 years

New Delhi: In the short span of three years since its launch, Ministry of Labour & Employment's eShram portal has registered more than 30 crore unorganised workers, showcasing its rapid and widespread adoption among the unorganised workers. 

"The Government envisages to establishing the eShram portal as a "One-Stop-Solution" for Country’s unorganised workers. During Budget speech 2024-25 it has been announced that, “A comprehensive integration of eShram portal with other portals will facilitate such One-Stop-Solution.” This initiative aims to facilitate access of various social security schemes being implemented by different Ministries/ Departments to unorganised workers through the eShram portal. The eShram-One Stop Solution will serve as a facilitator to ensure seamless access of various Government schemes to the unorganised workers. This will help in creating awareness of the schemes meant for unorganised workers while ensuring saturation of the schemes through identification of left-out potential beneficiaries," Labour Ministry said. 

As part of the ‘eShram - One Stop Solution’ project, Ministry of Labour and Employment (MoLE) has been working to integrate major schemes like Pradhan Mantri Jeevan Jyoti Bima Yojana (PMJJBY), Pradhan Mantri Suraksha Bima Yojana (PMSBY), Ayushman Bharat – Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (AB-PMJAY), Pradhan Mantri Street Vendor’s Atmanirbhar Nidhi (PM-SVANidhi), Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA), Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana Gramin (PMAY-G), Ration Card scheme etc. for the benefit of the unorganised workers, ministry said.
