If you want to transfer the money deposited in your different PF accounts to the same PF account, then you can do so through online mode. On changing jobs, another PF account is opened. The EPF amount is deposited in the new account.
If you are a salaried employee, then a part of your salary will be deducted as EPF. But it is seen many times, when our second PF account is opened after changing jobs.
