The Employees Provident Fund Organization (EPFO) has announced revised deadlines for the Annual Performance Assessment Report (APAR) for 2022-2023. As per the updated schedule, APARs will be disclosed to officers on August 16, 2024. Officers have 15 days from this date to submit any appeals. The APAR Custodian will forward these appeals to the Competent Authority, who will handle and resolve them by October 31, 2024. The final decision will be communicated by November 15, 2024. The APAR is applicable only to government employees. This notification was published on August 16, 2024.
For appeals, use the EPFO portal: log in, file an appeal, and it will follow a set process through the APAR Custodian and Competent Authority, ending with the APAR Custodian notifying the employee. Note that appeals must be filed in English due to system constraints. Detailed steps for this process are available for reference.
