Panel to monitor registration of construction workers
PATIALA:A district-level committee will now be monitoring the registration of construction workers with the Punjab Building and Other Construction Workers (BOCW) Welfare Board in Patiala district. The committee was formed by Patiala deputy commissioner (DC) Ramvir on Tuesday.
Headed by additional DC (development) Sandeep Rishi, the team will monitor the process of registration of labourers under the act, which will make them eligible to avail benefits offered by the BOCW Welfare Board. Assistant labour commissioner (ALC) Jatinder Pal Singh is also a part of the committee as a member secretary, and DC has also allowed the ADC to choose the members of the committee as per the requirement. The committee will have to submit the monthly progress report to the deputy commissioner.
“The committee will monitor proper implementation of the scheme — from registration of workers to availing timely benefits after the registration,” said DC Ramvir.
He added that the committee will oversee the registration process of beneficiaries by all the entitled government departments without any hindrance as some of the departments were deliberately not registering the labourers.
According to official records, as many as 45,000 workers have been registered in Patiala out of which almost 30,000 are the active workers. As per a report of an NGO, there are 1.25 lakh buildings and other construction workers residing in the district, out of which almost half of them are living in the rural areas.
A registered worker can avail several welfare schemes such as pension, health insurance, stipend scheme for the education of children and shagun scheme for the marriage of two daughters.
