Prime Minister Karki, who is also the Minister of Labor, Employment and Social Security and the Chairman of the Board, emphasized on the need to teach skills to those who go for foreign employment and make them skilled. She said that the government has adopted a policy to encourage capital, skills, technology and experience earned through foreign employment to be invested in productive sectors in the country.

"The 'call center' and 'telemedicine' services started by the board to solve the problems arising in foreign employment have been found to be useful from the point of view of the welfare of the workers", she said, "Thus, the steps taken by the board to increase the access of the service users by providing all the welfare services completely through the online system are commendable.
