Sir,
For financial inclusion of workers, it has become necessary to ensure payment of
wages to workers through Bank Account.
Accordingly, you are advised to take up with all major employers to get Bank Accounts
opened in respect of each worker/employee, if not already opened, especially in respect of
contract and casual workers. Further, all Principal Employers and contractors should be
advised to ensure payment of wages to all employees including contract workers only through
Bank Account.
A report may be sent to this office by 02.12.2016 giving number of Bank Accounts opened
because of our efforts.
This may be accorded top priority as payment has to be made for current month by end of
this month or by first week of following month.
Yours faithfully
Sd/-
