Relief for labour workers as destination country to reissue work permit

KATHMANDU, March 15: The government has decided to reissue the work permit from the destination country. 'Foreign Employment Management Information System' is being made for this and employees can now deposit money in Nepal from abroad through Banking and Mobile apps. The Ministry is of the view that the decision made from the Prime Minister's level on Wednesday will solve the problems that the workers have been facing for a long time.

The labourers have no other choice than to come back to the country due to the provision in which workers had to be re-issued the work permit after the completion of the two-year contract. The Ministry of Labour, Employment and Social Security hopes to end this inconvenience.
