Our approach
We don't replace the old way. We give it a memory.
Kormik starts from how work in Bangladesh already happens, and adds the one thing it has never had.
The old way
Phone calls, cash, the sardar.
Fast and familiar. But when the day ends, it leaves no record.
The Kormik way
The same people, the same speed.
Plus the one thing it never had: every day of work, on record, in the worker's own name.
A record that's yours.
Promoted, not deleted.
Other platforms try to cut out the broker, and fail. The people who organise the work are how the work gets done.
Kormik brings brokers and sardars in as Team Leaders. They keep their network, earn a name for reliable crews, and gain a future, such as growing into a licensed contractor.
What we're building toward, for every worker
Recognised
Every day of work counted, in the worker's own name.
Paid in full and on time
A record to stand on when the pay comes short.
Protected
Proof they were at work, on the day it counts.
Six principles
We listen first.
We start in the field, with the people who do the work.
Build on how work already happens.
The same calls, crews and places. Nothing to unlearn.
The record belongs to the worker.
It goes where they go, from job to job and year to year.
Fair to everyone on the job.
Workers, Team Leaders and clients each get something real.
Bangla first, built for basic phones.
If it doesn't work on the phone in a worker's pocket, it doesn't work.
Honest at every step.
We say what is ready, what isn't, and what may change.
What we will not do
- Sell workers' data
- Cut out the people who organise the work
- Ask for more than we need
- Pretend to be finished
