Daily Wages Labour (PARB Project 22-251, Entomology)

About This Job

Bahauddin Zakariya University (BZU), Multan, one of southern Punjab's largest public universities, has advertised two posts of Daily Wages Labour in its Department of Entomology. The jobs fall under a research project funded by the Punjab Agricultural Research Board (PARB), Project No. 22-251, titled "Development of Forecasting Techniques and Sustainable Pest Management of Insect Pests of Summer Vegetables". The advertisement (Adv. No. Admin-I/PARB/22-251/8186) is dated 2 October 2026 and was issued by the university's Assistant Registrar (AD-I). The project studies insect pests that damage summer vegetable crops and aims to develop forecasting methods and sustainable control strategies. These posts give local workers a chance to take part in practical agricultural research at a well-known university. Multan and its surroundings are an important vegetable-growing area of southern Punjab, and better pest forecasting can help local farmers protect their crops while reducing unnecessary pesticide use. The labourers will work in the field as part of this effort, helping researchers collect regular observations on pest populations over the growing season.

The university wants candidates who are physically fit and literate, and who can record data on insects, since the work involves fieldwork and record-keeping for the project. The engagement is on contract for one year, extendable if funds are available, with a maximum of 12 to 15 working days per month. Pay is at the daily wage rates set by the DCO/BZU. The advertisement gives no age limit, gender restriction or domicile condition, so any suitable candidate can apply. No formal degree is required, though applicants who have relevant credentials should include attested copies with their application. Candidates should be comfortable working outdoors in vegetable fields and following the instructions of the project's research team in the Department of Entomology.

Applying is simple. Write an application on plain paper, attach attested copies of any credentials, and submit it to the office of Prof. Dr. Muhammad Razaq, Chairman and Principal Investigator, Department of Entomology, Bahauddin Zakariya University, Multan. Applications must arrive on or before 16 October 2026. The university has said that late and incomplete applications will not be considered. There is no application fee. For queries, applicants can contact the university at 061-9210071-74 (extension 1133). Anyone in and around Multan who is interested in seasonal research work should send their application in good time. Keep a copy of your application and documents, and make sure your contact number is written clearly so the department can reach you.
