Officials experienced in handling various languages are part of the special control room (04952-370538/8547655275) set up to offer quick solutions on call. Though the majority of workers in the unorganised sector have already gone back to their home States amid the spread of COVID-19, many are still staying back with the support of their employers and the Labour Department. These workers will be offered all field-level assistance to combat the pandemic and stay healthy. There are approximately 18,000 such labourers in Kozhikode district who are covered by various government schemes and welfare initiatives.
