										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>New Delhi:</strong> The Standing Conference of Public Enterprises (SCOPE) has lauded the Ministry of Labour and Employment for introducing progressive reforms in the Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO), aimed at enhancing Ease of Living for millions of members. The reforms consolidate thirteen complex provisions into three simplified categories, enabling faster, more transparent withdrawal processes. Key measures include reducing the minimum employment period for withdrawals from seven years to one year and allowing members to withdraw up to 75% of their balance without documentation. SCOPE also welcomed the extension of the premature final settlement period to 12 months and revised EPS withdrawal rules that promote pension continuity. These reforms strengthen social security and reflect the government’s commitment to workforce welfare.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>NEW DELHI.</strong> Standing Conference of Public Enterprises (SCOPE), has commended the Ministry of Labour &amp; Employment for introducing progressive reforms in the Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO), aimed at enhancing Ease of Living for crores of members.</p>
<p>The reforms, which merge thirteen complex provisions into three simplified categories, ensure faster, simpler, and more transparent withdrawal processes. The reduction of the minimum eligible employment period for withdrawals from up to seven years to one year, and the facility for members to withdraw up to 75% of the eligible amount at any time without documentation, and full withdrawal under special situations are landmark measures towards member empowerment and procedural ease.</p>
<p>SCOPE also appreciated the Ministry’s initiative to extend the premature final settlement period to 12 months, a prudent step to promote long-term financial well-being, and to revise withdrawal benefit rules under EPS to encourage continuity and secure future pension benefits.</p>
<p>These comprehensive and citizen-centric reforms strike a fine balance between accessibility and financial prudence, reaffirming the Government’s commitment to inclusive social security and the welfare of the workforce.</p>
