1.Current condition for industry
The service app industry in Pakistan is still in its early stages of development.
However, there has been some progress in recent years, with the introduction of
several service apps aimed at connecting blue-collar workers with potential
employers. These apps include platforms like Rozgar, Hunarmand, and
Mustakbil Corner, among others.
These service apps typically allow workers to create profiles and search for job
opportunities, while also providing employers with a database of potential
candidates to choose from. Many of these apps also offer additional services
such as skill development courses, financial services, and safety training.
Despite the growth in service apps in Pakistan, there are still some challenges
that need to be addressed. For example, many workers in the informal sector
may not have access to smartphones or reliable internet connections, which can
limit their ability to use these platforms. Additionally, there may be issues
around verification of worker credentials and ensuring that employers are
providing safe and fair working conditions.
Overall, while the service app industry in Pakistan is still evolving, it has the
potential to be a valuable tool in improving the employment prospects of
workers in the country.
2.Challenges/Forces that can effect our business idea
The Service app industry faces a number of challenges, which can include:
Ensuring worker safety:
One of the main challenges for service apps is ensuring that workers are safe
while using the platform and working for employers. This can include verifying
the safety and compliance of employers and job sites, as well as providing
workers with safety training and protective equipment.
Protecting worker rights:
Services based apps need to ensure that workers are being paid fairly and that
their rights are protected. This can include verifying employer compliance with
labor laws, monitoring worker pay and benefits, and providing resources for
workers to address grievances or disputes.
Addressing digital divide:
Many blue-collar workers may not have access to smartphones or reliable
internet connections, which can limit their ability to use service apps.. This can
lead to a digital divide, where workers who are already disadvantaged are
further excluded from opportunities.
Encouraging employer adoption:
Services apps also need to convince employers to adopt the platform and hire
workers through it. This can be a challenge, particularly in sectors where
employers are accustomed to hiring workers through informal networks or
traditional channels.
Ensuring platform reliability:
Services apps need to ensure that their platform is reliable and secure, so that
workers and employers can trust that it will function properly and protect their
data. This can include investing in robust technology infrastructure and
implementing effective cybersecurity measures.
Building trust and reputation:
Services apps need to build trust and a good reputation among workers and
employers, which can take time and effort. This can involve developing strong
brand recognition, providing excellent customer service, and building a track
record of successful job placements.

platform, such as via SMS or phone calls. They can also work with community
organizations and government agencies to provide internet access and
smartphones to workers who don't have them.
Encouraging employer adoption:
“Servicelinks” apps can offer incentives for employers to use the platform, such
as lower fees or access to a larger pool of qualified workers. They can also
partner with industry associations and other organizations to promote the
benefits of using service apps.
Ensuring platform reliability:
“Servicelinks” apps can invest in robust technology infrastructure and
implement effective cybersecurity measures to ensure the platform is reliable
and secure. They can also provide 24/7 customer support to address any
technical issues or concerns.
