Employment Minister, Agni Deo Singh has commended Agri Exchange, a PALM Scheme Approved Employer under the Costa Group, for its strong focus on worker welfare and ethical employment practices.
Singh says Agri Exchange maintains a 50 percent returning workforce and invests heavily in training, mentoring, and understanding workers’ personal and cultural needs.
