GSSSB Work Assistant Recruitment 2026: Overview

Gujarat Subordinate Services Selection Board (GSSSB) is recruiting Work Assistant, Class-3 staff for the Central Design Organisation under the Narmada, Water Resources, Water Supply and Kalpsar Department. This is a direct recruitment drive for Gujarat government service, with an initial fixed-pay period before consideration for regular appointment. Your application belongs to this specific departmental cadre, so use the Work Assistant notice when checking the conditions.

Service Conditions and Caveats

• Initial service: The first five years follow the fixed-pay appointment arrangements cited in the notice. Regular appointment afterwards depends on satisfactory service and the conditions in the government resolutions, so it is not an unconditional promise at entry.
• Court proceedings: The appointment arrangements remain subject to the Supreme Court decisions in SLP No.14124/2012 and SLP No.14125/2012. This condition applies alongside the service rules set out by the state government.
• Reserved-category treatment: State reservation benefits apply to candidates belonging to the recognised reserved communities of Gujarat origin. Your category claim must match the category entered in your confirmed application.
• Women candidates: Seats outside the women-reserved share are open to both men and women on merit. If suitable women are unavailable for the reserved share, the notice allows those places to be filled by men from the corresponding category.
• Changing category: GSSSB will not accept a later request to change the category after application confirmation. If you need to correct an application, the notice describes the rules for a fresh confirmed application and its associated payment.
• Multiple applications: The latest confirmed application is considered under the notice rules. Where a fee is required, the board considers the latest confirmed application carrying the required payment; an earlier payment is not automatically transferred to a later form.
• Computer certificate: You may apply without holding the prescribed computer-knowledge certificate at the application stage, but you must produce acceptable proof before appointment. Selection can be cancelled if this joining requirement remains unmet.
• Training: If appointed, you must complete the training and pass the training examination required by government rules. Appointment-related action rests with the state government rather than the selection board.
• Travel: You must reach the allotted examination centre at your own expense. GSSSB will announce the centre arrangements and call-letter instructions separately on its website.
• Changes to the drive: The advertised positions may increase or decrease. Keep your registered mobile number and email active throughout recruitment, as the contact details in your form are used for communication.
