Punjab Safe Cities Authority
Key highlights: 49 posts at the Punjab Safe Cities Authority (PSCA) in Lahore and across Punjab. Six contractual posts and 43 short-term contractual posts. Monthly salary packages from Rs 40,000 to Rs 323,810. Last date to apply: 9 November 2026. Apply online through the PSCA career portal.
The Punjab Safe Cities Authority has opened a large new recruitment round for 2026, and it is one of the biggest provincial openings of the week. A total of 49 posts are on offer, covering modern technology roles at one end and practical trade and driving roles at the other. Because the round mixes senior data and artificial intelligence posts with drivers, electricians and attendants, it suits a very wide range of applicants from across Punjab. The advertisement carries the reference IPL-11355 and was published on 26 October 2026.
Safe city work links cameras and control rooms with police teams on the ground, so an incident spotted early gets help sooner. That link explains why this round hires technology specialists and field support staff together.
PSCA Jobs 2026 – Vacancy Details
The 49 posts fall into two groups. The contractual group holds six posts in four titles, while the short-term contractual group holds 43 posts in five titles. The salary package is the clearest difference between the two groups, and applicants should read their own group first before shortlisting a post.
| Post title | Basis | Salary package | Posts |
|---|---|---|---|
| Executive Officer Data Science | Contractual | Rs 323,810 | 1 |
| Deputy Executive Officer AI/ML | Contractual | Rs 200,000 | 1 |
| Deputy Executive Officer Procurement and Supply Chain Management | Contractual | Rs 200,000 | 1 |
| Nanny / Baby Sitter (Day Care Centre) | Contractual | Rs 48,500 | 3 |
| Electrician | Short-term contractual | Rs 51,347 | 6 |
| Driver (Motor Vehicle) | Short-term contractual | Rs 47,424 | 26 |
| Mason Mistry | Short-term contractual | Rs 45,945 | 1 |
| Plumber | Short-term contractual | Rs 45,945 | 1 |
| Attendant | Short-term contractual | Rs 40,000 | 9 |
Added together, the counts check out exactly: six contractual posts plus 43 short-term posts make 49 in all. Drivers alone account for 26 posts, more than half the round, so driving candidates have the widest opening here.
Where the Posts Are Located in Punjab
Driver posts are spread across sixteen Punjab cities — Murree, Attock, Chakwal, Talagang, Taxila, Hasan Abdal, Sialkot, Gujrat, Narowal, Gujranwala, Wazirabad, Hafizabad, Rajanpur, Chiniot, Layyah and Rahim Yar Khan — so driving candidates can often work near their home district. Electrician and attendant posts are offered in Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, Lahore, Gujranwala, Multan, Sargodha, Sahiwal, Dera Ghazi Khan and Bahawalpur, while the specialist posts sit at the Lahore base.
Eligibility Criteria for PSCA Posts
One point about this advertisement needs care, and it matters more than any other. The advertisement itself prints post titles, vacancy counts and salary packages only. It does not print a degree, age limit or experience rule for any post. Those details sit on the Authority’s career page, where each post has its own job description and terms.
That means no applicant should guess eligibility from a job title alone. A data science title does not prove which degree is required, and a driver title does not prove which licence class is required. Open the career page first, find your exact post title, and read its rules against your own record before you start the form. As of the evening of 26 October 2026, the October round had not yet appeared on the career page, so if your post title is not listed yet, keep checking the page rather than treating the absence as a closed round.
A few firm rules are already clear: result-awaiting candidates cannot apply; part-time, honorary, self-employed, apprentice and internship experience does not count; government employees must apply through the proper channel; and a foreign degree needs HEC equivalence.

Documents Checklist Before You Apply
Getting your papers ready before you open the form saves a failed submission at the end. Keep these ready:
- Computerised National Identity Card (CNIC)
- Educational degrees, transcripts and certificates for your chosen post
- Experience certificates from past employers, where the post requires experience
- Domicile certificate, if the career page asks for it
- HEC equivalence certificate, if your degree is from abroad
- Departmental no-objection certificate, if you already work in government service
- A recent passport-size photograph
Candidates called for interview must bring original documents with them, so keep originals and copies in one file from the start.
Why Apply for Punjab Safe Cities Authority Jobs
The strongest reason to apply is the range itself. Few provincial rounds in one advertisement offer a Rs 323,810 data science package and a Rs 40,000 attendant package side by side, with driving, trade and childcare roles in between. That range means households at very different education levels can all find a genuine opening in the same round.
The work also carries public value: safe city systems help police reach trouble spots faster, and contract posts build a public-sector record that helps in later rounds. Pay is fixed by post in the advertisement, so applicants know the package before they apply.
