The Delhi Government’s Labour Department will register construction workers at all labour sites in Delhi using mobile vans. This registration through mobile vans will ensure that they can avail benefits under various welfare schemes.
“Launching mobile registration vans will be a significant step in this direction as it will help deliver essential documents for all welfare schemes to as many labourers as possible”, Delhi Labour Minister Raaj Kumar Anand said on Wednesday. Anand said that a specially designed skill development programme would soon be launched for Delhi’s construction workers. “The plan is to commence it at the end of this month. This programme will provide opportunities to labourers to improve their skills and open new employment avenues to them,” he added.
The minister said the labour department will also create awareness about various welfare schemes among the workers through distribution of newsletters at the construction sites in the city. Anand expressed a strong commitment to resolving pending matters related to registration, claims, and updates for Delhi’s construction workers. These proactive steps reflect the dedication of the Labour Ministry and demonstrate their resolve to improve the lives of Delhi’s construction laborers, empowering them to lead better lives.
