Women in Blue-Collar Jobs: Breaking Barriers with 99Kaam

For decades, blue-collar jobs in India have been seen as a male-dominated domain. Construction sites, security work, delivery jobs, plumbing, electrical repairs—these roles have traditionally excluded women. But times are changing. And 99Kaam is proud to be a part of that change.


๐Ÿ‘ท‍โ™€๏ธ The Quiet Revolution

Across India, more women are stepping into roles once considered “unfit” or “unsafe” for them. Be it driving autos, working as security guards, or becoming electricians and delivery partners, women are now actively participating in the backbone of the economy.

What’s driving this shift?

  • Financial independence becoming a family priority

  • Better training and skilling opportunities

  • Changing societal norms

  • Technology bridging access to jobs beyond networks or references

99Kaam recognizes this powerful shift and is working to ensure that women are not just included—but empowered.


๐Ÿ’ช How 99Kaam Supports Women Workers

โœ… Safe and Verified Employers

Every employer on 99Kaam is vetted. This reduces the risk of harassment, exploitation, or unsafe work environments—one of the top concerns for women jobseekers.

โœ… Female-Centric Job Listings

We highlight jobs specifically suited or tailored for women, such as:

  • Housekeeping and cleaning staff

  • Driving jobs (e.g., for women-only cab services)

  • Tailoring, beauty & wellness

  • Kitchen, packing, and hospitality roles

  • Front-desk or counter sales jobs

We are also seeing growing demand in logistics and retail, where more companies are hiring female staff for their reliability and discipline.

โœ… Resume Building & Support

Many women in blue-collar roles have never created a resume. 99Kaam helps auto-generate simple profiles based on skills, past work, and availability—making job search more accessible and less intimidating.

โœ… Multi-Language Interface

Language should never be a barrier. The platform supports multiple Indian languages, allowing women from all backgrounds to explore opportunities with confidence.


๐Ÿงก Real Change, Real Stories

We’ve seen women who:

  • Became the first female security guard in their locality

  • Started as delivery riders after learning to ride a two-wheeler

  • Shifted from informal house-help jobs to formal employment with benefits

At 99Kaam, each success story fuels our mission: to bring dignity, security, and growth to every woman worker.


๐Ÿ“ˆ What's Next?

We are actively building:

  • Women-only hiring drives with partner employers

  • Mentorship and helplines for first-time job seekers

  • Free skilling workshops for digital literacy and safety

Because hiring women isn't enough. We want to retain, support, and uplift them throughout their careers.


๐Ÿš€ Join the Movement

Whether you are:

  • A woman seeking your first job

  • A mother returning to work

  • A skilled worker exploring new opportunities

99Kaam is here to walk with you.

Let’s break more barriers, together.
