VB-G Ram G to introduce new daily wage system for persons with disabilities, women and senior citizens

India's Viksit Bharat - Guarantee for Rozgar and Ajeevika Mission (Gramin) (VB-G Ram G) will implement a new daily wage system starting July 1, specifically designed for vulnerable groups including women, persons with disabilities, senior citizens, and individuals with debilitating ailments. This system aims to ensure these groups receive their full notified wages without facing disadvantages. The act introduces a special schedule of rates tailored to the needs of these groups, allowing for flexible working hours while ensuring fair compensation. Persons with disabilities will not be required to work fixed hours to receive their full daily wage, and their tasks will be assigned based on individual capabilities and physical conditions. Additionally, they will be prioritized for jobs closer to their homes and moved toward supervisory, support, and livelihood-oriented roles rather than labor-intensive work. The specific schedules for persons with disabilities are still pending finalization.
