LAHORE – Punjab Job Center, developed by the Punjab Information Technology Board (PITB) in collaboration with the Labor & Human Resource Department (L&HRD), has registered over 200,000 workers on its online portal since its launch in August 2022.

This was informed during a progress review meeting chaired by Chairman PITB Faisal Yousaf.

It was informed that 45,000 employers from both the public and private sectors have registered on the portal to seek potential candidates.

The online platform has been developed to create a bridge between potential employers, promoters, employment exchange agencies and workers, job seekers and citizens.

“The establishment of Job Center is an important step towards guiding the youth and ensuring their employment, which will benefit not only the industrialists but also the employers,” stated Faisal Yousaf.

The online job portal comprises a database of working human capital, including skilled, semi-skilled and unskilled, from both public and private sectors.

The job seekers and job providers in both public and private sectors can register themselves as business owners or as citizen workers. This Job Center also maintains a database of the pool of available human resources across the Punjab region.
