An Efficient Blockchain Architecture For Recruiting And Human Resource Management Of Migrant Workforce

Abstract

Blockchain technology has opened up a new world of potential distributed applications platforms in many domains including the government/public sector. The government sector in developing countries is often infested with corruption inefficiency in citizen services delivery, affecting large populations. Blockchain based decentralized, highly reliable, trustable environments lead us to solutions to some of the pertinent questions resulting from issues with centralized applications in the government sector for public service delivery. This thesis proposes Protectorate 2.0 - an application of blockchain technology in a very critical area of governance especially in third world countries with a large number of migrant workers. It discusses a real case study in the domain of export of labor and proposes a novel architecture that can lead to a manifold positive financial impact for governments and an upward trajectory in the recruitment of migrant workers. Government organizations in developing countries have a general image lacking transparency hence hindering them from becoming trustable entities in larger more efficient networks. The proposed solution addresses the area of real-world applications of blockchain where transparency and trust are of great importance. This high-level blockchain-based framework utilizes the best features of permissioned blockchains to achieve a transparent, collaborative environment that enables a whole new eco-system of Value Added Services(VAS) for migrant human resource.
