Employment and Placement Service

The Employment and Placement Service was established in Bangalore in the year 1977, since the inception of the NAB-KB, and as on date this centre placed over 1500 visually challenged young men and women in various organizations like Government, Public Sectors, Private Sectors, Small Scale Industries and Self Employment.

NAB believes that training without employment and placement leads to frustration and disappointment. This Centre has two Placement Officers who are qualified and professionally trained. Candidates have to register their names with the Department and seeing the suitability of the candidates i.e. matching the job requirement with the candidate's ability, the right candidates are selected for the right job.

After identifying a suitable job, the placement officer selects the candidates to work with the industries by providing them complete orientation in his / her job at the site. The candidates are trained for a few days and a regular follow up is maintained. This constant follow up has helped build the confidence of the visually impaired worker and has encouraged him/her to work as an equal with other sighted employees.

The visually challenged people today work as Machine Operators, Assemblers, Telephone Operators, Stenographers, Recaners and as Sub-staff. They are also employed as legal advisors and work in Software Departments. Some candidates have also been encouraged to independently set up small businesses and in this way have joined the main stream of society. The dedicated work done by the employment and placement officers have earned them 9 awards including the national award in the year 1997. This is just a bird's eye view of the work put in by the Placement Department.
