| The
paradoxical feature of a positive GDP growth rate along
with unfavourable employment trends have been one of
the most pressing contemporary concerns related to the
opening up of the Indian economy. This first bi-annual
report published by the Adecco-TISS Labour Market Research
Initiatives seeks to provide a thorough analysis of
the current situation of the Indian labour market in
terms of its composition across different segments,
sectors, regions and gender. It includes detailed analysis
of unemployed and underemployed labour force and even
those who are not in the labour force. The industry
perspective on issues of employment is also captured
through a primary survey of select industries in the
manufacturing and emerging sectors. |
