Atal Pension Yojana (APY) is a pension scheme provided by the government to financially help those working in the unorganised sector.

Atal Pension Yojana allows premature exit during exceptional circumstances; the government contributes 50 per cent of a member’s annual contribution, or Rs 1,000, whichever is less.

If a PM-SYM subscriber gets hired in an organised sector, the subscriber automatically gets enrolled into the Employees Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO).

Employees’ State Insurance Corporation’s new subscribers rose 18.2 per cent month-on-month to 18.86 lakh in December 2023,showing a steady month-on-month growth of ESIC members.

The reach of these three government social security schemes expanded significantly over the past year as more people joined these programmes.

Fresh enrolments in the NPS-Lite Swavalamban scheme, a social security initiative for the unorganized sector, stopped in 2015. Know the available options if you are a subscriber
