Labour Bank

The Labour Movement of the Diocese of Kothamangalam is initiating a novel Venture - Pravasi Labour Bank Data Collection - to extend possible assistance and guidance to the unemployed expatriates and other group badly affected by the economic slow down caused by the pandemic Covid 19.

Besides expatriates the beneficiaries include those working abroad under pressing circumstances, out of state guest workers returning to Kerala seeking job opportunities andstudents facing various problems during their higher studies both outside Kerala and abroad.

Here it may observed that those who have worked abroad at least for two years or currently working there are eligible to join the State Government's expatriate Welfare Fund and receive the benefits allotted to them. For all these what I fundamental is to set up a Labour Bank at the Diocesan level to identi those in need of assistance.
