What is UAN?
Each unorganised worker is given a 12-digit number after registering on the e-Shram portal. The UAN number will be a permanent number, which means that it will remain unchanged for the duration of the employee’s career.
What is an E Shram Card?
Workers who register successfully for the e-Shram Portal will be given an eShram Card. The card will bear a 12-digit UAN number. Employees who self-register and use the e-Shram portal are not required to apply for any other government social welfare programme.
