One Stop Centre (OSC) operates under the umbrella of Mission Shakti (Ministry of Women and Child Development, GoI / Government of Andhra Pradesh) located at Kuppam and Chittoor municipal hubs. The centers provide comprehensive integrated emergency services to women facing domestic violence, sexual harassment, matrimonial abuse, or acute crisis. Daily responsibilities involve case intake, temporary safe shelter monitoring, emotional de-escalation, legal aid coordination with DLSA, and emergency medical triage. Emotionally taxing and demanding social field environment requiring high empathy, patience, and strict confidentiality.

Posting & Transfer Policy

Purely contractual appointment, coterminous with the Mission Shakti Scheme. Stationed at One Stop Centre, Kuppam or One Stop Centre, Chittoor, Andhra Pradesh. Purely scheme-based tenure; provides no legal right or claim for regularization in the Andhra Pradesh Women Development and Child Welfare Department.

Career & Promotion Ladder
