Candidate summary: who should apply?
This recruitment is suitable for SSLC-pass candidates who are physically fit, willing to work at tourist destinations and prepared for field-oriented public-facing duties. The appointment is purely temporary and does not promise regular government service.
Only one district can be selected as preference. Local residency can matter at the tie-breaking stage, so candidates claiming local preference should upload valid proof. Even after selection against a preferred district, deployment can be made at any tourist destination in Kerala according to administrative requirements.

Eligibility criteria
Educational qualification
The minimum educational qualification is SSLC pass . Candidates should enter marks and percentage exactly as shown in the relevant certificate or marksheet because the first stage of shortlisting uses SSLC percentage.
Age limit
The applicant must be 20 to 45 years old as on 1 September 2026 . The notice states this age band for the recruitment. Check your exact age using the age calculator before submitting the form.
Physical fitness and deployment readiness
Applicants must be physically fit for Green Marshal responsibilities. A candidate may be selected for a preferred district yet deployed or redeployed elsewhere in Kerala. Apply only if you can accept this condition.
Pay and nature of appointment
Selected candidates receive ₹810 for each day of actual attendance . This is not described as a fixed monthly salary. The total monthly receipt will therefore depend on the number of payable attendance days.
The engagement is purely temporary, daily wage and for one year. It does not confer a right to permanent appointment or continuation beyond the notified term.
Selection process and tie-breaking
- Eligible applications are shortlisted using the percentage obtained in SSLC.
- Shortlisted candidates are called for an interview or proficiency assessment.
- When candidates have equal SSLC percentages, preference is given to a resident of the concerned locality on production of valid proof.

കേരള ഗ്രീൻ മാർഷൽ അപേക്ഷാ വിവരങ്ങൾ മലയാളത്തിൽ
ആകെ 162 ഒഴിവുകളാണ് വിജ്ഞാപനത്തിലുള്ളത്. കുറഞ്ഞ യോഗ്യത SSLC പാസ്; 01 സെപ്റ്റംബർ 2026 ന് 20 മുതൽ 45 വയസ്സ് വരെ പ്രായമുള്ളവർക്ക് അപേക്ഷിക്കാം. ഓൺലൈൻ അപേക്ഷ 11 സെപ്റ്റംബർ 2026 വൈകിട്ട് 5 മണിക്ക് അവസാനിക്കും.
- അപേക്ഷയിൽ ഒരു ജില്ല മാത്രം preference ആയി തിരഞ്ഞെടുക്കാം.
- SSLC മാർക്കിന്റെ ശതമാനം അടിസ്ഥാനമാക്കിയാണ് പ്രാഥമിക shortlist.
- shortlist ചെയ്തവർക്കായി interview അല്ലെങ്കിൽ proficiency assessment ഉണ്ടായിരിക്കും.
- ഒരേ ശതമാനം വന്നാൽ ബന്ധപ്പെട്ട പ്രദേശത്തെ സ്ഥിരതാമസക്കാരന് തെളിവിന്റെ അടിസ്ഥാനത്തിൽ മുൻഗണന ലഭിക്കും; പിന്നെയും tie ഉണ്ടായാൽ കൂടുതൽ പ്രായമുള്ള ആളിന് മുൻഗണന.
- Green Marshal ആയി തിരഞ്ഞെടുക്കപ്പെട്ടാൽ കേരളത്തിലെ ഏത് വിനോദസഞ്ചാര കേന്ദ്രത്തിലും നിയമിക്കാനോ പിന്നീട് മാറ്റിനിയമിക്കാനോ വകുപ്പിന് കഴിയും.
- ദിവസത്തെ actual attendance ന് ₹810 ലഭിക്കും. ഇത് സ്ഥിരം സർക്കാർ ജോലി അല്ല; ഒരു വർഷത്തേക്കുള്ള purely temporary daily-wage engagement ആണ്.
- photo JPEG 200 KB-ൽ താഴെയും signature JPEG 50 KB-ൽ താഴെയും തയ്യാറാക്കുക. ആവശ്യമായ certificate files JPEG/PDF ആയി 3 MB-ൽ കവിയരുത്.
