Kerala’s New Rule Targets Long-Term Contribution Defaulters in Construction Sector
The Government of Kerala has announced an update to the Building and Other Construction Workers (Regulation of Employment and Conditions of Service) Kerala Rules, 1998. This change, detailed in G.O. (P) No. 50/2024 LBR, aims to modify Rule 284 concerning the resumption of membership after a lapse in contribution payments. This notification was published on August 8, 2024.
Effective immediately, the new rule specifies that if a beneficiary fails to pay contributions for over three years, their membership cannot be reinstated. This adjustment aligns with the Kerala Building & Other Construction Workers’ Welfare Board’s recommendation to address the issue of prolonged non-payment.
By implementing this rule, the government seeks to enforce stricter adherence to contribution requirements and ensure the sustainability of welfare funds. The revised regulations reflect the government’s commitment to improving the management and effectiveness of worker welfare programs.
This update underscores the government’s focus on maintaining financial integrity and supporting the welfare of construction workers in Kerala.
