LABOUR WELFARE
Since 2008, the Gramin Evam Samajik Vikas Sanstha (GSVS), Ajmer, has been working for the welfare of migrant and unorganized workers. The organization operates two types of support centers for migrant and unorganized sectors. The first type is in source areas—regions where more than 50% of the workforce migrates to other areas for employment. Here, we operate Worker Assistance Centers to support these migrant workers. Similarly, in industrial areas that attract workers from other regions beyond the local workforce, we run Worker Assistance Centers in these destination areas to provide essential support to migrant workers.
Through Worker Assistance Centers, we are connecting workers to the following services:
KEY INITIATIVES OF THE PROGRAM
Legal Awareness, Legal Aid & Advocacy
We advocate for worker-friendly policies, focusing on welfare schemes, health access, and silicosis rehabilitation through strategic partnerships.
Legal awareness sessions empower workers with knowledge of labour laws and offer support in resolving disputes via mediation.
Violations can be registered directly at our centre with assistance from the Rajasthan Labor Helpline.
Occupational Safety and Health
We train workers on safety measures and collaborate with institutions to reduce workplace accidents and disease risks. Support is extended for silicosis and TB prevention through government systems and employer coordination.
Linkage to Social Security Schemes and Services
Workers and families are guided through enrollment in social security schemes via camps and e-Mitra services. Regular follow-ups ensure access to pensions, BOCW benefits, Palanhar, and other government programs.
Financial Inclusion
Our literacy sessions help workers open bank accounts, understand insurance, and prevent fraud in online transactions. These efforts strengthen long-term financial security for unorganized sector families.
Reproductive and Sexual Health
Women workers receive guidance on reproductive health, prenatal care, and child nutrition through local health partnerships. Services include immunization, anaemia prevention, and pregnancy management support.
Worker-Friendly Facilities and Services in Urban Areas
We work with government bodies to establish shelters, child care, toilets, and checkup camps in industrial zones. These efforts improve living conditions while connecting workers to essential social benefits.
Operation of Day-Care Centers for Migrant Workers’ Children
Our day-care centers ensure safe environments for 30–50 children of migrant workers in industrial areas. Services cover nutrition, education, and health monitoring to protect children from workplace risks.
Youth Skill Development
We offer training to help rural youth avoid hazardous jobs and pursue careers in the formal sector. Career counselling and skill sessions empower young workers toward safer, sustainable futures.
