Scheme Introduction: A Brief Overview

The Chhattisgarh Mukhyamantri Nirman Shramik Dirghayu Sahayata Yojana (Chief Minister Construction Worker Longevity Assistance Scheme) is a state welfare scheme run by the Chhattisgarh Building and Other Construction Workers Welfare Board (CGBOCWWB) under the Labour Department. It gives registered construction workers targeted health-related financial support so that weak eyesight, hearing loss, an accident, or a serious illness does not drain a labourer's income or push their family into debt. As of 2026, the Dirghayu Sahayata Yojana is active and remains one of the flagship construction-worker welfare schemes in Chhattisgarh.

Under this Chhattisgarh labour scheme, the benefits cover both everyday needs and medical emergencies - assistance for spectacles, artificial teeth (dentures), and hearing aids, reimbursement for accident-related treatment, wage compensation during long hospital stays, and support of up to ₹20,000 for serious illnesses. To be eligible, an applicant must be a Chhattisgarh resident and a registered construction worker aged 18–60 whose Welfare Board membership is active, and all payments are made through Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) into an Aadhaar-linked bank account.

Applying for the scheme is simple and flexible. Registered workers can apply online through the Chhattisgarh Labour Department portal or the Shramev Jayate mobile app, or offline at a Shram Seva Kendra, Choice Centre (CSC), or district labour office. Once the documents are submitted and verified, the sanctioned amount is credited directly to the worker's bank account. The core aim of the scheme is to protect a construction worker's income and family savings during illness, injury, or old age, giving the state's labour force financial security and dignity through timely, transparent DBT-based support.

Scheme Benefits

The Chhattisgarh Labour Department provides financial assistance under the scheme across four categories:

  • Registered construction workers can receive financial assistance of up to ₹1,000 for spectacles to correct weak eyesight.
  • The scheme provides support of up to ₹5,000 for artificial teeth (dentures).
  • A registered worker can claim up to ₹6,000 for a hearing aid.
  • In case of an accident, the actual cost of medical treatment is reimbursed up to a maximum of ₹20,000.
  • If a worker is hospitalised for more than 15 days, the wage loss is compensated at the applicable minimum wage rate for the days lost.
  • For serious or critical illnesses such as heart, kidney, liver, cancer, spinal, neurological, or paralysis treatment, the scheme offers assistance of up to ₹20,000.
  • Every sanctioned amount is paid directly to the worker through Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) into their Aadhaar-linked bank account.
