change current employer in epfo
4 weeks ago
I have joined in my current company in April 2022, but in september i received an offer from another company for part-time work. initially i said yes but after 1 week i left that company. but they have created a pf account under my UAN and marked DOj and date of exit as same date. now though i left the later company, it still showing as current company in epfo. does it cause any problem in my next company BGV? Can I change my current company details in EPFO?
A.Dear Client,
While there is no law explicitly prohibiting individuals from holding multiple jobs, it's crucial to ensure transparency and compliance with company policies. If you're considering taking up another job while already employed, it's important to resign from your current position before joining the new company, especially if there are clauses in your employment contract prohibiting full-time work elsewhere.
Background verification checks, including verification of EPFO records through UAN, are standard procedures conducted by many organizations during the hiring process. These checks help ensure that candidates provide accurate information and have legitimate employment histories. Failure to pass background verification checks can result in rejection or termination of employment.
If you encounter issues with overlapping PF records from multiple employers, you can seek resolution by contacting the office of the Regional PF Commissioner. They have the authority to address anomalies in EPF records, and you may need to submit a joint declaration form signed by both you and your employers to correct any inaccuracies.
If necessary, you can file a complaint using the EPF i-Grievance Management System. By resolving any discrepancies in your EPF records with cooperation from your previous and current employers, you can ensure clean employment records and avoid complications in future job opportunities.

A.Dear Client,
There is no overarching law that prohibits a person from doing multiple jobs. It is not illegal however both companies should not have the clause “cannot take up work full time in some other company” So, before joining another Company you are required to tender your resignation from the earlier company that eventually caused the overlapping of service. Further, Background verification(BGV) check is a process many organizations carry out in order to verify the information provided by the candidate during hiring. Verification of EPFO records through UAN is a critical process for conducting employee background checks because it allows employers to confirm that their employees are not using false or stolen identities to gain employment. In case of a negative background verification check an employer can even reject or terminate the employment of the candidate. In the given situation, to resolve the issue of overlapping in the P F records of both employers, you need to approach the office of Regional P F Commissioner who is the competent authority to resolve any anomaly arising out of date of appointment and date of discharge in EPF records. A joint declaration form is used to correct Provident Fund (PF) member details. It is a combined form that the employee and employer jointly sign and submit to the regional PF commissioner to update the wrong information entered in the employees’ PF accounts. An individual can file a complaint using the EPF i-Grievance Management System (www. https://epfigms.gov.in/). Once you succeed in wiping out the stigma of dual employment from your EPF records with the cooperation of your previous and present employer, your scope of employment with other companies will be restored with clean employment records.
