Financial Assistance for Purchasing School Uniforms, Books and Notebooks from Class 1st to 12th for Children of Workers- Haryana Labour Welfare Board(FAPSUBNC1T12CW-HLWB)

Overview

About FAPSUBNC1T12CW-HLWB

Eligibility for this money is settled on a payroll register, not at a school desk. The Haryana Labour Welfare Board pays for school uniforms, books and copies only where the employer has been paying the welfare fund contribution for that worker, and the Board's own page on the fund puts the entitlement squarely on the contribution. The class slab, the wage ceiling and the December cut-off all sit behind that single test, which is why a family that clears it is claiming against a fund it has already paid into rather than competing for a scholarship.

The Board is a creature of the Punjab Labour Welfare Fund Act, 1965, which Haryana continues to apply, and its job is to run a fund rather than a grant programme. Section 9-A fixes what goes into that fund, and the rate has been revised repeatedly: with effect from January 2026 an employee in a registered industrial or commercial establishment contributes 0.2% of salary or wages subject to a limit of Rs 35 a month, the employer contributes twice that amount, and the Board receives Rs 105 a month for each covered worker, per The Haryana Labour Welfare Board. The same page ends with the sentence that governs every scheme on this list: the eligible worker who has made contribution to the fund is entitled to get the benefits.

Uniform assistance is what a slice of that money buys back. The Board describes the scheme as help with buying school uniform, books and copies where a worker's child continues study from first class to twelfth, and sets two amounts against two class bands rather than reimbursing a bill, on its scheme detail page. It sits in a long menu of Board benefits open to the same contributing worker, running from a scholarship and coaching assistance through a new cycle, spectacles and a sewing machine, all reached from one login.

Key details

Calendar

Important dates

The Board runs the scheme on an academic session rather than a fixed opening date, and only the closing date is published.

The December date is a bar rather than a target. The Board states that applications submitted after 31 December will not be considered, and since the continuing-study certificate has to be obtained from the school before that, the practical deadline for a family is whenever the school office can issue it.

Who can apply

Eligibility criteria

The test the Board applies first has nothing to do with the child. The establishment must be registered on the Labour Department portal, the employer must have put the worker's Aadhaar and mobile numbers into the database, and the contribution for that worker must actually have been paid; only after the Board verifies the worker does the list of schemes he can claim become available to him, per the department's process flow for welfare scheme applications. A worker whose employer has skipped the contribution is not a late applicant here. He is not yet an applicant at all.

Past that gate the conditions are short. The worker needs two years of service under the scheme, and his monthly wage has to sit within a ceiling that the Board's scheme page and the Antyodaya-SARAL service document for this exact service both fix at Rs 27,000. The national myScheme entry for the scheme carries a lower ceiling than either, so the two governments' own pages are a revision apart; the Board's page is the one the Labour Welfare Officer reads. Proof that the child is actually studying is a certificate from the school principal or headmaster on the school's own letterhead, uploaded with the claim, which the Board lists as a condition of eligibility rather than a formality.

How many children one worker can claim for is stated two ways in official material and it is worth knowing both. The Antyodaya-SARAL service document and the myScheme record both cap the benefit at three girls and two boys per worker, while the Board's own Hindi scheme page words the same condition as two boys and all girls. Where the two diverge, the Labour Welfare Officer handling the file works from the scheme conditions the Board publishes, so a family claiming for a third or fourth daughter should expect to have the point tested rather than assume it.

Who cannot apply

Exclusions

Nowhere on its scheme page does the Board disqualify a category of worker or a type of school by name. What rules families out instead is the December bar, a wage above the ceiling, service short of two years, and a contribution the employer never paid.

Continuation

Renewal conditions

There is no renewal box, and no entitlement that carries a child from one session into the next on its own. The Board writes its conditions per academic session and fixes 31 December as the last date within the session concerned, while the myScheme record describes the money as one-time assistance given at the time of admission. Neither page says in terms whether a family paid in Class IV may claim again in Class V, so a household planning on a second year should put the question to the Labour Welfare Officer before it counts on the answer, and the continuing-study certificate has to belong to the session being claimed either way.

What you get

Award & benefits

The money is a fixed sum against a class band, paid on continuing study rather than against receipts for a specific uniform or set of books. The Antyodaya-SARAL service document phrases both figures as an upper limit.

What to prepare

Documents required

The Board's own list for this scheme runs to five items, and every one of them is issued by somebody other than the family: an employee salary slip, the employer certificate, an education certificate, the ration card or ESI card or Parivar Pehchan Patra, and an employee certificate, each with a downloadable sample format beside it and an undertaking to download separately, on the scheme detail page. Using those samples matters more than it sounds, because a certificate written in the employer's own format is the routine reason a file comes back with an objection.

The Antyodaya-SARAL service document lists a slightly different four, and the differences are the ones worth preparing for: it specifies the wage slip as the previous month's, drops the ration card, and adds the pass certificate for the last examination alongside the continuing-study certificate on school letterhead. Carry both sets and the file is complete whichever counter opens it.

Step by step

How to apply

Applications are made online, and the worker's own registration on the Labour Department portal is the first step rather than the application itself. The worker enters his Aadhaar number at hrylabour.gov.in, receives a one time password on the registered mobile number, and builds a profile that carries his family details, with Aadhaar numbers of family members mandatory; documents are uploaded in the prescribed format and size, and the welfare schemes he is eligible for open up once the Board has verified him, per the department's process flow. The same service is listed on the state's single window, and the Antyodaya-SARAL service document records no government fee for it, with a service charge of Rs 10 and an Atal Seva Kendra service charge of Rs 10 where the form is filled at a centre rather than at home.

Where the File Sits, and What the Notified Limit Actually Says

Two portals show the same claim from different angles. Inside his own account on hrylabour.gov.in the worker tracks the application in real time, and if an objection is raised he adds the missing documents to the existing file there rather than starting again; the same account shows his contribution and unpaid accumulation record, which is the fastest way to see whether the employer has actually been paying. On Antyodaya-SARAL the same service is followed through Track Application and, where a grievance has been logged instead, through Track Ticket, with updates pushed to the registered mobile number and email.

The clock on the file is published, and the two official statements of it do not agree. The Board's own display of services notified under the Haryana Right to Service Act, 2014 puts this service at 60 days, the same limit it carries for its scholarship, coaching, sports and marriage benefits, and it names the Labour Welfare Officer as designated officer with the Deputy Labour Commissioner (Welfare) as first appellate authority and the Welfare Commissioner as second, in the department's list of notified services. The Antyodaya-SARAL service document for the same service prints 90 days instead. The Board's page is its own current display and the one that names the appellate ladder, so treat 60 days as the working limit and quote it when you escalate.

How winners are picked

Selection process

Nothing here is competitive. The Board sets a condition list and an amount per class band and stops, with no merit list, no ranking and no fixed number of awards, so a claim that survives verification is paid at its band's rate. The decision sits with the Labour Welfare Officer named in the department's notified service list, which is why the employer certificate and the school's continuing-study certificate decide far more outcomes than anything about the child's marks.

Fine print

Terms & conditions

The conditions on the Board's scheme page are all verifiable by a third party rather than declared by the applicant: the wage ceiling, the two year service period, and the certificate of continuing study on school letterhead. The myScheme record adds one the Board's page leaves to the document list, that the child's name should appear on the worker's ration card or ESI card. A signed undertaking is filed with the claim, and the amounts are published as an upper limit for each class band rather than a guaranteed figure. The entitlement also lapses with the employment it rests on, since it is the contribution flowing into the fund that keeps a worker inside the scheme.
