Lucknow. On the occasion of Labor Day in Uttar Pradesh, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath announced many new schemes and facilities for workers and labor class. The government gave a clear message that the real strength of the state’s development is the working class and making their lives safe and better is the priority.
Focus on wages and social security
The Chief Minister said that the government has already increased the daily wages of the workers. Now the future goal is that every worker not only gets better income, but he can also easily get the full benefits of health and social security schemes.
System made easier with digital facilities
The labor portal created for workers has been further strengthened. Along with this, a new website of Building and Other Construction Workers Welfare Board has also been launched. With this, workers will now be able to get information about government schemes and complete the application process through mobile or computer.
Health insurance offer up to ₹5 lakh
Keeping in mind the safety of workers, the government has proposed a health insurance scheme of up to ₹5 lakh. Under this, workers will be able to get treatment in any empaneled hospital. This will reduce the financial burden during illness and will provide security to the family.
300 bed hospital in Greater Noida
Taking a major step on Labor Day, the foundation stone of a 300-bed modern hospital was laid on 7 acres of land in Greater Noida. This hospital will be specially designed to treat the workers and their families, so that they can get better health services.
Accommodation and food arrangements
The government has also announced plans to build modern residential complexes, low-cost canteens and 500-bed male and female hostels for the workers. This will provide relief to laborers coming from outside from the worries of accommodation and food.
New labor centers in every district
Labor bases will be given a new look at major places in all the districts of the state. There will be better arrangements for workers to sit, wait and get work here, so that they will not have to worry on the roads.
