After implementing 75 percent reservation for people of the state in private jobs, the Manohar Lal Khattar Government in Haryana has decided to set up a call centre to provide assistance to its citizens and seek feedback on various aspects related to EMPLOYMENT. The outbound call centre is proposed to be launched to provide personalized assistance to the job seekers, offer information on different government policies and schemes, redress grievances of citizens and address the queries of job seekers. Besides this, a bulk messaging service is also planned to be started by the government to connect to the citizens on employment related issues.

The Haryana State Employment of Local Candidates Act, 2020 that reserves 75 per cent of jobs in the private sector in Haryana offering a salary of less than Rs 30,000 a month only to locals came into effect on January 15, 2022. Under this, any local candidate (resident of Haryana) aggrieved by the action of any employer in violation of any provision of the Act, can file a complaint with the government.
