Cochin Shipyard Limited Recruitment 2026: 260 Contract Workmen Vacancies

This role is ideal for skilled Indian nationals with an SSLC (10th pass) and an ITI National Trade Certificate in specified trades, possessing at least three years of post-qualification experience. Candidates seeking contractual employment within a prominent Public Sector Undertaking, with opportunities for various trade-specific roles and competitive consolidated pay, will find this a suitable opportunity. Preference is given to those who meet the age criteria and are comfortable with a practical test-based selection process in Kochi, Kerala.

Individuals lacking the mandatory three years of post-qualification experience in a relevant ITI trade should not apply. Those seeking permanent government employment may find the contractual nature of these positions (maximum five years) less appealing. Applicants unable to appear for a practical test in Kochi or those who do not possess the required SSLC + ITI qualification will be deemed ineligible. Current employees of Cochin Shipyard Limited as Fabrication Assistants and Outfit Assistants are also not eligible.

Cochin Shipyard Limited (CSL) is a 'Miniratna Schedule A' Government of India Enterprise, offering a reputable platform for skilled workmen. While these are contractual positions, working with CSL provides valuable experience in a leading shipbuilding and maintenance facility, enhancing career prospects in the maritime industry. The organization's stature ensures good professional exposure and adherence to government norms regarding pay and benefits for contractual staff.
