Office/fieldwork balance, duties, organizational environment.

Gender Specialists under the District Hub for Empowerment of Women (DHEW) operate as nodal technical experts at the district collectorate/ICDS office under Mission Shakti (SAMBAL and SAMARTHYA sub-schemes). The role involves coordinating government welfare schemes for women (Beti Bachao Beti Padhao, One Stop Centre, Pradhan Mantri Matru Vandana Yojana), conducting field awareness camps, monitoring gender-based violence grievances, and facilitating women's economic and legal empowerment. The work is grassroots-intensive, requiring frequent interaction with block-level Anganwadi workers, police authorities, and district administration.

Posting & Transfer Policy

Appointment is strictly contractual and temporary under the administrative control of the District Magistrate, Munger and Women and Child Development Corporation (WCDC) Bihar.

Contractual employees under DHEW do not hold government servant status and cannot claim regularisation.
