WHAT IS UPCOSUPCOS क्या है

One regulated system, replacing scattered departmental contractsएक नियमित प्रणाली, बिखरे हुए विभागीय अनुबंधों की जगह

Before a centralised system existed, individual departments across Uttar Pradesh each signed their own contracts with local placement agencies to hire outsourced staff — drivers, data entry operators, peons, security guards and similar support roles. Oversight was uneven, and pay, EPF and ESIC compliance varied widely from one contract to another.

The Uttar Pradesh Corporation for Outsource Services was set up as a state-government undertaking to standardise this: one empanelment process for agencies, one requisition-and-approval workflow for departments, one wage-and-statutory-compliance pipeline for workers, and one grievance-redressal channel that spans all three.

It is governed by a Board of Directors chaired by the Chief Secretary of Uttar Pradesh, with senior IAS officers overseeing finance, personnel, labour and secretariat administration, and a Managing Director/Secretary responsible for day-to-day functioning.
