* **Core Objective(s):** To establish clear and comprehensive rules regulating the method of recruitment to the post of Social Security Assistant within the Employees Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO).
**4. Background and Rationale:**

* Method of Recruitment: 80% by direct recruitment through an open competitive examination and 15% by promotion. Recruitment for meritorious sportspersons is also mentioned.
* **Disqualification:** Individuals with more than one spouse are ineligible for appointment, unless permitted by personal law and with Central Board approval.
* **Power to Relax:** The Central Board can relax provisions with written justification and in consultation with the Central Government.
* **Savings:** The rules do not affect existing reservation policies and age relaxations for Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, Other Backward Classes, ex-servicemen, and other special categories.
* **Promotion:** Promotion is from amongst Lower Division Clerks having thirteen years regular service in Level 2 and who possess matriculation from a recognized Board; and qualifying a skill test with a minimum typing speed of 35 words per minute in English or 30 words per minute in Hindi on computer.
**6. Target Audience and Stakeholders:**
