Details

Many construction workers in Nagaland face financial strain when they or their family members need medical treatment. To ease this burden, the Nagaland Building and Other Construction Workers' Welfare Board (NBOCWWB) has a dedicated scheme to provide medical assistance.

What Is This Scheme?

The "Medical Assistance" scheme is designed to offer financial support to registered construction workers and their immediate family members during hospital stays. It helps cover some of the daily costs associated with being admitted to a hospital.

This scheme provides a crucial safety net, ensuring that essential hospitalization doesn't lead to severe financial hardship for these workers and their families.
