Eligibility Criteria — The Rules That Actually Matter
This recruitment works differently from a typical government exam. Read these three points carefully, because they decide eligibility.
Educational qualification: None. No minimum educational qualification is prescribed for the Contractual Safai Karmchari post. What matters instead is your work experience.
Work experience (the key requirement): You must have at least one year of sanitation (safai) work experience in any urban local body of Rajasthan. This can be one continuous year or separate periods that add up to a year. Crucially, your experience certificate must be issued by the urban local body in the prescribed format, and it must be issued after 01 August 2026 and before the last date of application — certificates issued before 01.08.2026 will not be accepted. You must also be a native (mool niwasi) resident of Rajasthan.
Age limit: You must be 21 to 40 years old as on 01 January 2027 (minimum 21, and not yet 40). Age is calculated as on 1 January following the last date of application, i.e. 01.01.2027.
Age Relaxation (Upper Age Limit)
| Category | Relaxation |
|---|---|
| SC/ST/OBC/MBC/EWS men (Rajasthan domicile) | 5 years |
| General-category women (Rajasthan domicile) | 5 years |
| SC/ST/OBC/MBC/EWS women (Rajasthan domicile) | 10 years |
| Widows & divorced/deserted women | No upper age limit (below retirement age) |
Relaxations are non-cumulative — only one applies. Other special relaxations (ex-servicemen, etc.) are detailed in the notification.
Vacancy Details — Urban Local Body-wise
The department has published the body-wise vacancy list below. Per the notification, these numbers may be increased or decreased, and the definitive category-wise (reservation-wise) breakdown for each body is available separately on the official website — check it before you apply, since reservation applies as per rules.

Selection Process — Online Lottery (No Exam)
There is no written examination. Among eligible applicants, selection is made through an online lottery (software developed by the Department of IT & Communication, Rajasthan), filling posts category-wise. The lottery follows this order of priority:
- First, candidates with one year of experience in the same urban local body they applied to.
- If posts remain, candidates with one year of sanitation experience in another urban local body of the same district.
- If still vacant, candidates with one year of experience in any urban local body of the state.
Where the Rajasthan High Court has directed priority or regularisation in earlier sanitation-worker recruitments, willing/consenting applicants will be given priority in that urban local body.
Important: You may apply to only one urban local body of your choice out of the 183. Applying to more than one — or more than once to the same body — will get all your applications cancelled.
How to Apply — Step by Step
Applications are online through the SSO portal or an e-Mitra kiosk. Keep your Jan Aadhaar and experience certificate ready.
- Log in at sso.rajasthan.gov.in (or the LSG portal, lsg.urban.rajasthan.gov.in) and open the Recruitment Portal under Citizen Apps (G2C).
- Complete One-Time Registration (OTR) — enter your category, disability status, and home state, and pay the OTR fee. (Details entered in OTR, like name, father’s name, DOB, and gender, cannot be changed later, so fill them carefully.)
- Click Apply Now and select your chosen urban local body.
- Fill in all remaining details accurately and enter your Jan Aadhaar number (mandatory).
- Capture a live photo in the form (the form requires a live photo, not an upload) and enter your visible identification mark.
- Upload your signature as per the specification below.
- Submit the form and note your Application ID — if you don’t get an Application ID, your form is not submitted (a preview is not a submission). Take a printout.
Photo & Signature Specifications
Getting the signature file right is essential — the form rejects wrong formats.
- Signature/thumb impression: Sign inside a 7 cm rectangular box on white A4 paper using a black or dark-blue pen, scan it, crop to the box, and upload. Format: JPEG only. Size: 20 KB to 50 KB. A photo of the signature taken on a mobile phone is not accepted.
- Live photo: Captured within the form on a white/light background, face covering at least 50% of the frame, no dark glasses, head and face uncovered. Editing the live photo is prohibited.
Tip: To get your signature into the exact 20–50 KB JPEG the form needs, use our free Photo & Signature Resizer — set the format to JPG and the size limit to 50 KB.
Other Important Conditions
- You must be a native resident of Rajasthan; candidates of SC/ST/OBC/MBC/EWS from other states are treated as General.
- Two-child norm: candidates with more than two children born on or after 1 June 2002 are not eligible (with specified exceptions).
- Candidates with more than one living spouse are not eligible; dowry and marriage-registration conditions apply.
- Final selection is subject to a medical fitness certificate and police verification.
