The workflow begins with registration of the suspected person, followed by medical examination by the competent authority. A pneumoconiosis certificate is then issued, and relief is transferred through Direct Bank Transfer. An appeal route is also available when required.
Q2Which statement correctly describes the institutional review mechanism of Rajasthan's Silicosis Policy-2019?
Implementation is reviewed by a standing committee under the Chief Secretary. The framework is not confined to one department: Social Justice and Empowerment, Labour, Mines, Health and other departments carry out their assigned responsibilities.
Q3Consider the following statements about Rajasthan's Silicosis Policy-2019: 1. Its rehabilitation or ex-gratia relief extinguishes the victim's right to seek statutory compensation from the employer. 2. The policy covers pneumoconiosis diseases listed in Part C of Schedule III of the Employee Compensation Act, 1923. 3. Prevention measures include registration of dusty mines and industries, dust-suppression tools and engineering controls. Which of the statements given above are correct?
Statements 2 and 3 are correct. The policy adopts the pneumoconiosis coverage in Part C of Schedule III of the Employee Compensation Act, 1923 and prescribes mine and industry registration, dust suppression and engineering controls. Statement 1 is false because rehabilitation or ex-gratia relief does not curtail statutory employer compensation.
Q4Which one-time rehabilitation assistance is payable to a person certified as suffering from pneumoconiosis under Rajasthan's Silicosis Policy-2019?
A person certified by the competent authority as suffering from pneumoconiosis receives ₹3,00,000 as one-time rehabilitation assistance. The separate ₹2,00,000 and ₹10,000 benefits apply after the victim's death to death assistance and funeral support respectively.
Q5Consider the following statements about eligibility under Rajasthan's Silicosis Policy-2019: 1. Certification of pneumoconiosis by the competent authority is the gateway to relief. 2. A worker from another state who worked in Rajasthan may qualify after certification if similar relief has not been received from another state. Which of the statements given above is/are correct?
Both statements are correct. Relief follows certification of pneumoconiosis by the competent authority. The coverage can also extend to an out-of-state worker who worked in Rajasthan, provided certification is obtained and comparable relief has not already been received from another state.
