e-Shram Card: How to register online on eshram.gov.in? Check details, and more

e-Shram: The e-SHRAM portal is developed by the Ministry of Labour & Employment for creating a National Database of Unorganized Workers (NDUW), which will be seeded with Aadhaar. It will have details of name, occupation, address, occupation type, educational qualification, skill types, family details, etc. for the optimum realization of their employability and extend the benefits of the social security schemes to them. It is the first-ever national database of unorganized workers including migrant workers, construction workers, gig and platform workers, etc.

Under this scheme, the beneficiary will receive a 2 lacs accidental insurance cover under Pradhan Mantri Suraksha Bima Yojana(PMSBY) after enrolling. All unorganized worker social security benefits will be given through this platform in the future. This database might be used to give critical support to qualified unorganized employees in emergency and pandemic-like conditions.
