Work Culture & Environment

Office/fieldwork balance, duties, organizational environment.

Green Marshals are deployed by the Directorate of Tourism across prominent beaches (Kovalam, Varkala, Cherai, Bekal), hill stations (Munnar, Vagamon, Ponmudi), backwater hubs (Kumarakom, Alappuzha), and wildlife gateways under Kerala's responsible tourism framework. Green Marshals serve as the frontline environmental custodians and tourist facilitators. Core responsibilities include enforcing the Green Protocol (preventing single-use plastics and littering), guiding visitors on destination safety and local attractions, assisting District Tourism Promotion Councils (DTPCs), and monitoring cleanliness across public facilities. The role involves standing and active patrolling in outdoor weather conditions across high-footfall tourist seasons.

Posting & Transfer Policy

Initial posting criteria, zone preferences, transfer liability.

Daily wage engagement for a period of one (01) year. Deployment is primarily within the district opted by the candidate, but appointees may be re-deployed across any destination in Kerala as per administrative requirements.

Career & Promotion Ladder

Promotion timeline, seniority ladder, pay grade scaling.

Daily wage engagements do not carry any right for regularization, absorption, or permanent service in CMD or Kerala Government departments. However, one year of verified field experience as a Green Marshal provides valuable credentials for private eco-resorts, tour operations, and municipal environmental monitoring projects.
