Work Culture & Environment

Office/fieldwork balance, duties, organizational environment.

The Community Development Officer (CDO) / Samaj Vikas Adhikari operates within the Group of Tuberculosis Hospitals, Sewri, Mumbai, which is Asia's largest dedicated municipal hospital for tuberculosis treatment under the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC/MCGM). The CDO serves as a critical bridge between patients, families, and healthcare administration. Key responsibilities include administering the hospital's Poor Box Fund to assist indigent patients, coordinating social welfare support, counseling destitute and abandoned TB patients, tracking patient compliance with long-term anti-TB treatment regimens, and organizing educational and psycho-social support programs. Work hours are strictly day shift (9:00 AM to 5:00 PM) with mandatory biometric attendance twice daily. The role demands deep empathy, resilience in high-exposure infectious disease settings, and active coordination with other medical social work institutions across Mumbai.

Posting & Transfer Policy

Initial posting criteria, zone preferences, transfer liability.

Purely temporary contractual appointment valid from date of joining up to 31 March 2027. Under BMC municipal policy, contractual staff are subject to a mandatory 1-day technical service break after every 179 days of engagement. The appointment is governed by a ₹500 bond paper agreement and does not confer any entitlement, right, or claim for permanent absorption or regular status in municipal corporation service under any circumstances.

Career & Promotion Ladder
