The Haryana government, led by Labour Minister Anil Vij, is set to launch help desks at the block level across the state to streamline access to welfare schemes for construction workers.

These desks will serve as one-stop centers, offering comprehensive support with registration, applications for welfare benefits, and grievance mechanisms. The aim is to ensure speedy and transparent processing of workers' welfare applications.
The centers, manned by Assistant Welfare Officers and supported by IT infrastructure, will provide various benefits to workers, such as maternity and paternity benefits, educational scholarships, and reimbursements for travel and tool purchases, among others.
