SACRED: A Govt. Portal for Re-Employment of ‘Senior Able Citizens’

In light of a technical group’s report that “more than 50% of senior citizens are found active,” the government has decided to create an IT portal called ‘Senior Able Citizens for Re-Employment in Dignity (SACRED)’ to serve as an employment exchange for engagement seeker able senior citizens.

The portal will connect job seekers and employers by virtual matching preferences, with the goal of devising ways to ensure Senior Citizens live healthy, happy, empowered, dignified, and self-sufficient lives. The government will provide Rs. 10 crore for platform development, as well as a Rs. 2 crore maintenance grant per year for the next five years.

Web Link of SACRED Portal:
https://sacred.dosje.gov.in/index.php

Senior citizens who are active feel isolated at home due to a lack of engagement, despite the fact that they are equally capable of performing work-related responsibilities. As a result, the government has decided to devise ways to build a society in which senior citizens can live healthy, happy, empowered, dignified, and self-sufficient lives. The government intends to involve the entire society in the initiative, particularly the following stakeholders, in order to provide older people with employment opportunities:

i) Private firms/ Corporates;

ii) Educational institutions;

iii) Government Sectors and local Bodies for consultancy services;

iv) The Non-Profit, Non-Governmental Associations, Societies/ Trusts, etc.; and

v) The Media and finally the Public at large.

Scope of the SCARED Portal

i) An IT portal to bring the employment seeker senior citizens and employment providers on one platform will be developed and maintained by an agency identified through a transparent process.

ii) An individual senior citizen will get oneself registered on the portal with his relevant education, past experience, skills and the areas of interest. The person will also select keywords regarding expected tasks, which will enable the job providers find them automatically. Details can be updated by the Senior citizens.

iii) Any job provider – individual/ firm/ company/ partnership/ Voluntary Organisations, etc. 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.

iv) Voluntary Organizations will help the senior citizens in applying for these jobs. No user charges will be taken from any of the senior citizens by any Voluntary Organizations. Therefore, the Employment Portal will serve not only the senior citizens seeking employment, but also the employers, the SHGs, the senior citizens gaining skills, and other agencies/ individuals.

v) The Employment Exchange Portal will not be a guarantee for getting a job/ employment or selling of the products of the SHGs, or for any other activity. It will act as an interactive platform where stakeholders meet each other virtually and decide on the course of action with mutual respect, consent and understanding.

vi) Any individual/ firm/ company/ agency will seek the services of the senior citizens in respect of those tasks where experience can naturally outweigh hiring new personnel and providing them training, etc. Example can be short term employment, contract for a project, teaching, counselling jobs. The Employer and the employee may extend their partnership beyond the short term, too, on mutual consent and respect basis.

Very appreciable step taken by Modi Govt. I am 63 and still Energetic to work further. I am Ready to Move for work any Time at Nagpur. Very sound in Health n keep my self Fit at any moment.

3. Srinivas Kaza:

Good Initiative by GOI. However it is sad to notice that very few Organisations have responded for this initiative. To make it effective, GOI must make it mandatory for every Private and Public Ltd Companies to ensure certain percentage of workforce and new recruits must be Retired Sr Citizens. In fact every Organizations must have a Sr Citizen Portal in their Careers section. This alone would make the GOI initiative a Grand Success. Further, SACRED Portal link is not accessible at the moment. Hope the NIC team would look into this please and enable list of current job postings for Sr Citizens.

4. A. SADAYAPPAN:

Good opportunities initiated by GOI for Senior Citizens job portal. In this portal a few companies only come forward.

140. G CHANDRASEKARAN:

I am 65 years old and served Railways for 40 years that includes 2 years of re-engagement, which couldn’t continue due to Covid-19 pandemic. Again, I am available and ready to serve the Nation. It’s really a Good initiative/ scheme by the Government to help the senior citizens occupy themselves physically and mentally, besides support in their financial independence/ security.

141. Capt. Raj K Malik:

I must compliment the team of Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment for coming out with a much needed platform which could address the concerns of senior officers/ citizens who have given their sweat and blood to various Organizations for building the Nation. I acknowledge with thanks to the Govt. of India for launching the ‘SACRED’ portal. I am sure that this initiative will go a long way and yield positive results. It is worth mention here that the ‘experience is road to knowledge’ and it can not be overlooked. The same is to be channelized for further strengthening the nation. JAI HIND!
