Senior citizens seeking work opportunities can now get a job from the SACRED employment exchange portal.
Socialbiku : Starting from October 1, senior citizens seeking work opportunities will be able to bag jobs from the Indian government’s first-of-its-kind dedicated employment exchange.
The portal known as Senior Able Citizens for Re-Employment in Dignity (SACRED) will help Indians above 60 years of age to find jobs easily, right at the comfort of their homes. The portal is operated by the Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment (MoSJ&E’s)
In a statement, the ministry said that any job provider - individual, firm, company, partnership, and voluntary organisation - can also register on the portal. “The job provider will specify the task involved and the number of senior citizens that are required to complete it," the ministry said.
The ministry will spend Rs 10 crore to fund the platform development while a maintenance grant of Rs 2 crore has been approved as well. Moreover, additional Rs 10 crore will be spent annually for the publicity of the portal so that more people know about the initiative.
