Talking about the initiative, Mr RCM Reddy, MD & CEO, Schoolnet India Ltd & Learnet Skills Ltd, said, “It’s humbling to receive support from the government, industry and my team to bring ‘AVSAR’ into existence. What started with feedback from the Learnet Skills aluminous, later converted into a vision and transformed into an action-oriented initiative called AVSAR. Understanding the needs and aspirations of returned migrant workers, we envision this initiative as a new beginning for them”.
“Utilizing our past experiences, knowledge and resources, we would upkeep the job seekers at every level right from realizing their needs, skills, emotional health and preparing them for job interviews and placement. We plan to touch the lives of million-plus workers through this initiative,” he further added.
The mass exodus of workers has been very painful and highlights many issues in the system. These migrant workers are physically very strong and great at managing complex situations; however, there is the fear of unknown. AVSAR initiative will impart hope, trust, and confidence and give them a new purpose to make their life better.
The proposed initiative is aimed at counselling the returned migrant workers about the alternate job opportunities available locally in the form of self-employment and wage employment in the companies/ sectors in their vicinity or other cities. The purpose of this initiative is also to help migrants make an informed decision.
To reach over 12.5 lakhs workers, AVSAR initiative will be implemented across 60 districts in nine states of India, viz, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Bihar, Jharkhand, West Bengal, Odisha, Chhattisgarh and Assam. The counseling would be provided on four key aspects- career counseling, emotional wellbeing counseling, logistics guidance to travel to different cities and workplace-related counseling.
