Haryana's Labour Department has opened online applications for its construction worker welfare schemes in 2026, and registered workers with a valid Labour Copy (Labour Card) can now apply for an interest-free loan of up to ₹2 lakh for building or buying a house. Along with this housing loan, eligible workers can also get ₹51,000 for their daughter's marriage under the Kanyadaan Yojana and scholarships for their children's education. Applications are submitted online at hrylabour.gov.in, and the loan amount is sent directly to the worker's bank account after approval.
This is not a new scheme but rather the 2026 window for registered labourers to apply for benefits they are already entitled to under the Haryana Building and Other Construction Workers (BOCW) Welfare Board. If you have a Labour Card and have been registered with the Haryana Labour Welfare Board for at least 5 years, there is a good chance you are eligible for one or more of these welfare benefits right now.
Welfare Benefits Available Under Haryana Labour Copy Schemes 2026
Haryana Labour Department runs several welfare schemes for registered construction workers under the BOCW Board. The three main benefits currently accepting applications in 2026 are:
House Construction Loan: Registered workers can get an interest-free loan of up to ₹2 lakh to build or buy a house. This is a 0% interest loan, and the amount is transferred directly to the bank account of the worker via DBT. No middleman or agent is needed.
Kanyadaan Yojana (Daughter's Marriage Financial Support): Workers whose daughters are getting married can get financial support of ₹51,000 per marriage. This benefit is available for up to 3 daughters of a single registered worker. The bride must be at least 18 years old and the groom at least 21 years old. A marriage registration certificate is required.
Scholarship for Children: Children of registered construction workers studying in schools and colleges can get scholarships for their education. The amount varies based on the class and course the child is enrolled in. Proof of enrollment and the worker's Labour Card are required to apply.

How to Apply for Haryana Labour Copy Loan Scheme 2026
The application process is fully online through the Haryana Labour Department portal. There is no need to visit any government office. Here is how to apply step by step:
STEP 1 - Open the official Haryana Labour Department website at hrylabour.gov.in and log in with your Labour ID and password. If you have not registered yet, first complete your registration on the portal.
STEP 2 - Go to the BOCW Welfare Schemes section and click on the scheme you want to apply for, such as "House Construction Loan," "Kanyadaan Yojana," or "Scholarship Scheme."
STEP 3 - Enter your Family ID (Parivar Pehchan Patra / PPP number). The portal will automatically pull your family details from the government database. Verify that the details shown are correct.

FAQ's
What is a Labour Copy and how do I get one?
A Labour Copy, also called a Labour Card, is a registration certificate issued by the Haryana Labour Welfare Board to construction workers. You can register at hrylabour.gov.in or at your nearest CSC center. Once registered and membership is active, you become eligible for BOCW welfare schemes.
Can I apply for the housing loan and Kanyadaan scheme at the same time?
Yes, both are separate schemes and you can apply for both if you meet the eligibility for each. However, make sure your Labour Card is active and your 5-year membership condition is fulfilled for the housing loan.
Is the housing loan a grant or does it need to be repaid?
The ₹2 lakh housing benefit is described as an interest-free loan. Check the official notification at hrylabour.gov.in for the current repayment terms, as these may be updated by the department from time to time.
Can a worker get Kanyadaan benefit for more than one daughter?
Yes, the Kanyadaan Yojana benefit of ₹51,000 can be claimed for up to 3 daughters of a single registered worker. A separate application must be submitted for each daughter's marriage, and each requires its own Marriage Registration Certificate.
What if my application is rejected?
In case of rejection, you will receive information about the reason. Common reasons include insufficient membership years, missing employer stamp on the form, or Aadhaar not being linked to the bank account. Fix the issue and re-apply. You can also visit your nearest Labour Department office for help.
