Overview
DCPU Tiruvallur Recruitment 2026 (3 Posts), Apply Offline by 21 September 2026 in Tamil Nadu. District Child Protection Unit Tiruvallur (DCPU Tiruvallur) has released a recruitment notification for 3 contractual posts of Case Worker and Outreach Worker under Tamil Nadu government job 2026. DCPU Tiruvallur functions under the child protection framework, supporting emergency helpline and casework functions across Tiruvallur district. Eligible candidates holding a graduate qualification in Social Work, Computer Sciences, Information Technology, Community Sociology, or Social Sciences can apply offline through the official website before the closing date. District Child Protection Units operate under the Ministry of Women and Child Development's Integrated Child Protection Scheme (ICPS), functioning as the district-level nodal body responsible for implementing the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act. DCPU Tiruvallur coordinates with the district's Child Welfare Committee and Juvenile Justice Board on casework involving children in need of care and protection, and the preference for candidates with Emergency Helpline experience reflects the frontline, time-sensitive nature of this work — Case Workers and Outreach Workers are often the first point of contact when a child protection concern is reported, requiring both administrative record-keeping and direct field engagement with vulnerable children and families. Candidates from allied disciplines such as Computer Sciences or Information Technology are also considered for these posts because DCPU case management increasingly relies on digital case-tracking systems, meaning proficiency with computers is a genuinely functional requirement rather than a formality. The 42-year maximum age limit applied to both posts is somewhat broader than the entry-level restrictions common to many contractual government roles, likely reflecting the value DCPU places on candidates who already bring some life or field experience to sensitive child-protection casework. Selected Case Workers and Outreach Workers will support DCPU Tiruvallur's child protection casework, with preference given to candidates having experience working in Emergency Helplines. The DCPU Tiruvallur 2026 selection process consists solely of Document Verification, with no separate written examination. The monthly remuneration for DCPU Tiruvallur 2026 is ₹18,000 for Case Worker and ₹21,000 for Outreach Worker, on a contractual basis. The DCPU Tiruvallur 2026 offline application form is available at tiruvallur.nic.in. The last date to apply for this recruitment is 21 September 2026. No application fee has been mentioned in the notification for any category. Candidates must read the complete official DCPU Tiruvallur notification PDF before applying, since this is a contractual child-protection role rather than a permanent government appointment.
