Babajob.com to make salary data accessible for blue-collar jobs

Babajob.com, a digital job marketplace that connects aspiring workers to top brands and employers, is making salary information pertaining to the informal sector accessible for everyone, through its 'Next Billion' portal.

The platform will act as a reference point for employers to correctly define salaries for the entry level/blue-collar jobs, and in its pilot phase, represents data across five job categories – drivers, delivery executives, BPO executives, maids and security personnel in Bangalore.

“Making this data open to the public, benefits both the employers and the job seekers,” said Vir Kashyap, Co-Founder, and COO, Babajob.com.

Headquartered in Bangalore, Babajob.com works on a scalable, replicable, profitable solution backed by a proprietary technical algorithm that helps connect the right talent with the right employer.

Through the ‘Next Billion’ platform, employers can gauge the right salary to pay their staff based on their geo location as well as job category, while job seekers are armed with the knowledge of what pay to expect and can choose where to seek better opportunities.

Apart from location linked salaries, users can utilize the platform to identify best paying jobs across Bangalore. Going forward, the ‘Next Billion’ platform will aim to include data from other metropolitan cities such as Delhi, Hyderabad and Chennai.

Based on data derived from the vast database of jobs and respective salaries listed on Babajob.com, Next Billion shows an overlay of salary data linked to pin-codes, defined category wise.
