Night-Shift Female Worker Safety & Compliance SaaS
The Opportunity
Delhi has amended labor laws allowing women to work night shifts (9 pm–7 am) with mandatory written consent, CCTV surveillance, and safety safeguards. Employers across hospitality, healthcare, IT, and manufacturing now face compliance complexity—tracking consent forms, managing CCTV footage, scheduling shifts legally, and maintaining audit trails. No unified platform exists to help SMEs and large employers manage these new regulatory requirements efficiently.
Market Size
₹150–200 crores annually. Delhi NCR has ~8,000 registered establishments employing women; compliance software adoption at 15–20% currently. Expanding to other Indian states as they adopt similar laws creates ₹500+ crore TAM.
Business Model

Monthly SaaS subscription: ₹5,000–50,000 per employer based on headcount (500+ users = ₹50k/month)Compliance audit & certification reports: ₹10,000–25,000 per quarterCCTV hardware & integration partnerships: 10–15% commission on sales
