This query is : Resolved
One of my staff has attained 60 years of age and up on attaining 60 years, management has decided to cease his PF account and stopped deducting PF from his salary but continue to work. Now the staff want his PF to be deducted and deposit full of Employers contribution (as well as Employees)to EPF account instead of pension fund but management is not agree to do so. What are the legal aspect on the issue.
Anticipating a fruitful reply as always and my gratitude for the same.
Thanks & regards

The management cannot escape pointing out the age factor.So long as he is in service,the benefits have to be given.

The employee seems to be right.
If you have doubts you may visit and/or speak to PRO/APFC in nearest or jurisdictional PF office......

Agree with the experts.
If employer want to save its portion, it should retire the employee and if he agree can keep him on contract on consolidated payment terms provided local law permit so.

Dear Sir/s,
Thank you all for your valuable opinion. I have an another query i.e.
What is the legality if UAN is not yet provided by the employer and
If some body resigns/retires during the period before providing the UAN.
Anticipating once again your valuable input as always.
Thanks & regards
