Permanent Disability Punjab Pension Scheme  Financial Help for Disabled Construction Workers

The Permanent Disability Pension Scheme is a helpful support plan started by the BOCW Welfare Board, under the Department of Labour, Punjab. It is meant for registered workers who are part of the board.

If a worker becomes fully disabled (100%) and has been a member of the board for at least 1 year, they can get monthly financial help. This pension will start from the date the worker becomes disabled.

Pension Amount

• ₹2,000 every month as pension
• This amount is given to help the disabled worker live with dignity and ease
