Abstract

The Indian labour market is characterised by abysmally low participation of women in the labour market, enormity of low wage informal employment, and scarcity of decent regular wage employment. The collection of essays discuss the labour market scenario in India from different angles, highlighting the need for integrated labour policies. It has been recognised that skill development, inclusion of women, agricultural employment and social security need special focus. The articles have been developed from research studies and survey analyses by scholars and academicians dealing with the issue of labour and employment.
