All You Need To Know About The E Shram Card

July 9, 2024 by Raggi Mudde

One of the latest inventions by the Union Ministry of Labour and Employment is the E Shram card. This card is considered the gateway for all welfare schemes through a single card—a single number. The ministry prioritises welfare and social security for labourers, employees, and gig workers in the unorganised sector. For the last few years, the ministry has launched several new initiatives aimed at helping these workers.
