Jelšingrad was a major Banja Luka metalworking and machinery complex — one of the larger industrial combines in Bosnia and Herzegovina under the Yugoslav self-management system. Like many SOUR-era enterprises, it operated its own social facilities, and Odmaralište Jelšingrad was its workers' rest home on the Dalmatian coast at Tučepi. These vouchers served as the internal payment medium within that facility, insulating the transaction from the broader Yugoslav dinar during periods when inflation made fixed-rate catering arrangements administratively awkward.
The Tučepi connection is the detail worth noting: enterprise-owned odmarališta on the Makarska Riviera were a specific feature of Yugoslav industrial welfare, and meal vouchers from named coastal rest homes are considerably rarer in the collector market than their inland factory-canteen equivalents.
