Provident fund membership rules extend to covered employees, opted-in higher wage contributors, and international workers under bilateral agreements. Membership of the Employees' Provident Fund Scheme attaches to employees carried forward from the earlier scheme, to employees in covered establishments, and to excluded or exempted employees on ceasing such status. An employee and employer may jointly opt in writing for enrolment or contributions above the wage ceiling, with employer liability for administrative charges and compliance. Similar membership rules apply to International Workers, with additional contribution requirements for workers in countries covered by bilateral social security agreements when detachment benefits are sought.
