DHAKA, July 31, 2018 (BSS) – Ministry of Labour and Employment (MoLE) today
signed an agreement with Rupali Bank SureCash mobile banking service to
disburse grants from Bangladesh Labour Welfare Foundation (BLWF) for
laborers.
“MoLE signed the agreement with Rupali Bank SureCash mobile banking service
so that laborers can receive the grants, allowances and other financial help
without any hassle,” said a statement from the ministry.
BLWF director general Anisul Awal, Deputy Managing Director of Rupali Bank
M Jahangir Alam and SureCash chief executive officer Dr Shahdat khan signed
the deal while State Minister of the ministry Mujibul Haque was present at
the signing ceremony at the ministry’s conference room.
“Till now we used to receive written applications, scrutinize those and
then give the allowance to the applicants. It was a very complicated process,
which used to take long time,” said Mujibul.
“Labourers from now on can file application online for grants and other
allowances and the money will now go directly to the mobile bank account of
the applicants,” he added.
