MINISTER OF STATE FOR LABOUR AND EMPLOYMENT
(SUSHRI SHOBHA KARANDLAJE)
(a) to (d): The Ministry of Labour and Employment launched eShram
portal (eshram.gov.in) on 26th August, 2021 for creation of a
comprehensive National Database of Unorganised Workers (NDUW).
The eShram portal registers the unorganised workers and provides
them a Universal Account Number (UAN) on a self-declaration basis.
District-wise and occupation sector-wise details of
unorganised workers registered on the eShram portal in the State of
Uttar Pradesh are at annexure- I and II respectively.
Details of unorganised workers in the State of Uttar
Pradesh registered on the eShram portal enrolled under various
social security schemes is at annexure-III.
Contd..2/-:: 2 ::
Ministry of Labour and Employment launched the eShram–
“One-Stop-Solution” on 21st October 2024. eShram– “One-Stop-
Solution” entails integration of different social security/ welfare
schemes at single portal i.e. eShram. This enables unorganised
workers registered on eShram to access social security schemes and
see benefits availed by them so far, through eShram.
District-wise details of unorganised workers associated
with the powerloom industry registered on the eShram portal in
State of Uttar Pradesh are at annexure-IV.
To enhance registrations under the eShram initiative and
ensure wider coverage of unorganised workers including in the
handloom, handicrafts and Powerloom sectors, the Government has
adopted a comprehensive strategy. In addition to enabling self-
registration through the web portal and mobile application, assisted
registration modes have been introduced via Common Service
Centres (CSCs), State Seva Kendras (SSKs), and the UMANG platform
to facilitate easy access for workers. The Ministry of Labour and
Employment is conducting targeted awareness campaigns
comprising registration drives, community outreach programs and
locally tailored communication efforts. To strengthen outreach, the
Ministry leverages social media channels to disseminate videos,
tutorials, and other informative content, making the initiative more
accessible and engaging.
To further enhance the availability and accessibility of
eShram and its associated services to unorganised workers, the
Ministry of Labour and Employment officially launched the eShram
mobile application on 24th February 2025. This application facilitates
real-time access to welfare schemes integrated with the eShram
platform, thereby significantly strengthening both accessibility and
user convenience.
