Chandigarh Labour Department launches drive to mobilise unorganised workers
Chandigarh, September 8
The Labour Department here has started awareness camps to mobilise the unorganised workers to get themselves registered on the e-Shram portal.
The camps were organised at Community Centre, Mauli Jagran; Community Centre, Bapu Dham; Community Centre, Maloya; Street Vending Zone, Sector 15; and City Livelihood Centre, Sector 25. The programme which started on September 6 will run till September 11.
The department made an appeal to all unorganised workers to get themselves registered on the portal.
The Ministry of Labour and Employment has launched e-Shram portal – www.eshram.gov.in – for creating a comprehensive National Database of Unorganised Workers.
The database will be seeded with Aadhaar and it will consist of name, occupation, address, educational qualification, skill types, family details, etc. for optimum realisation of employability and to extend the benefits of the social security schemes to the workers. — TNS
