वाराणसी के रामबाबू — मज़दूर — गुजरात में construction work। COVID में वापस आए। कोई सरकारी पहचान नहीं थी — कोई scheme का पैसा नहीं मिला।
2022 में CSC centre से ई-श्रम registration करवाया। UAN card मिला। 2023 में वापस गुजरात गया — वही UAN card — accident insurance वहाँ भी। 2024 में PM Vishwakarma scheme में UAN card से apply किया — ₹3 लाख credit limit मिली।
ई-श्रम (e-Shram) — Ministry of Labour & Employment, Government of India। 26 August 2021 को launch। India का पहला national database for unorganized workers। 30 करोड़+ workers registered as of 2026। UAN card = permanent 12-digit identity = pan-India valid।

ई-श्रम क्यों ज़रूरी है?
Before e-Shram: कोई central record नहीं — daily wage workers, migrants, gig workers = invisible to government। COVID में scheme का पैसा नहीं पहुँच पाया।
After e-Shram: UAN = permanent identity → 50+ schemes automatically link → benefits directly bank में।
