Sommario:
- Employment policy in the International Development Agenda and its relevance in India Catherine Saget This chapter maps the evolution of global approaches to employment policy and how they relate to the employment conditions and challenges that are particular to the Indian economy and development experience. It raises the critical issue of employment data and the development of labour force survey tools that meet the demands of very large and highly informalised labour markets. India has been at the centre of innovation in the design and implementation of labour force surveys and monitoring. The chapter looks at three categories of highly vulnerable workers—domestic workers, home-based workers and minimum wage workers—focusing on the global and national legal frameworks that apply to each of them. It examines the idea of the "on-demand economy" and how this idea might affect the terms of employment and working conditions of millions of Indian workers. Jobless growth and the low quality of employment generated can also be attributable to supply side factors in the education and skills formation domains.
