Beschreibung
Many of the countries around the world have experienced periods of jobless growth characterized by the higher level of output and informalisation of employment. This rapid growth of informalisation represents the deterioration of the quality of remunerative work such as insecure and flexible jobs with lower wages, lower economic and social security and poor working conditions. India is not an exception to this scenario. Since, a vast majority of workers in India are working in the informal sector, thus suffering from the problem of deficit in decent employment. Punjab state of India, a predominantly agrarian economy presents an important glimpse of the wider image of the Indian labour market. This state has long exhausted the fruits of Green Revolution and its industrial scenario has not matured along the desirable lines. Therefore, a vast majority of workers in rural Punjab are either employed in agriculture or in small scale home based family enterprises with low pay, poor working conditions and no coverage of social security. In this prospective this book is an attempt to measure the magnitude of deficit in the decent employment in the rural areas of the Punjab state of India.
