e-Shram portal

The e-Shram portal, launched by the Ministry of Labour and Employment, Government of India, is a comprehensive online database designed to provide social security and welfare benefits to unorganized sector workers. The portal aims to facilitate the registration of these workers, including migrant laborers, construction workers, domestic helpers, and street vendors, providing them with a Universal Account Number (UAN) and an e-Shram card. This initiative is expected to enhance access to social security schemes, improve job opportunities, and ensure better targeting of welfare measures, thereby empowering the informal workforce and integrating them into the mainstream economy【24:0†source】【24:4†source】.
