Hyderabad Metro Rail Employs 20 Transgender Persons for Security Roles
In a progressive move promoting inclusivity, Hyderabad Metro Rail has employed 20 transgender individuals for security services across its network. The initiative aims to provide equal employment opportunities and empower the transgender community while enhancing safety standards at metro stations.
Officials highlighted that the selected candidates have undergone rigorous training in security protocols, emergency management, and passenger assistance to ensure they can perform their roles effectively. The Metro Rail authorities expressed confidence that their inclusion would not only strengthen security measures but also foster social acceptance and representation in public employment.
This initiative is part of broader efforts by Telangana authorities and urban service providers to integrate marginalized communities into mainstream workforce opportunities. Hyderabad Metro Rail has also committed to sensitization programs for existing staff to create a supportive work environment.
