The Punjab government has, at various points, run labour-card style registration schemes aimed at the province's daily-wage and construction workforce, generally under its labour and human resource department. As with any government welfare scheme, the specific name, portal, and eligibility criteria can change between phases — so treat this as a general introduction, and always confirm current details through the official Punjab government source before applying or sharing personal documents.

Who it's generally aimed at

Punjab-based daily-wage workers, construction labourers, and informal-sector workers who are registered (or eligible to register) with the provincial labour welfare system.

What's typically needed to apply

  • A valid CNIC (national ID card)
  • Proof of residence in Punjab
  • Evidence of working in a qualifying labour trade (this varies by scheme phase)

How to apply safely

Apply only through the official Punjab government labour department website or a verified government registration centre — never through a third party asking for payment to "process" your card, which is a common scam around these schemes. If in doubt, visit your local labour office in person and ask directly.

While you wait

Registration drives open and close periodically, so it's worth checking back with your local labour office. Meanwhile, having a clear, visible listing of your trade and daily rate online means you're not depending on any one scheme to keep finding work.
