This study attempts to understand the dynamics of the sluggish growth of Indian organized manufacturing sector and employment intensity at aggregate as well as industry levels using Annual Survey of Industry data at 3-digit level. Time period considered is from 1981 to 2014 with the trend breaks in major economic events/shocks in Indian economy. The study shows a small improvement in the employment elasticity of organized manufacturing sector over the period of time. Within the broad industrial groups, the gap between employment and gross value added of medium low-tech industrial group has come down rapidly over the period. Similarly, low-tech group has also shown a slight improvement in the employment elasticity over the period.

This study investigates the trends in GDP growth, employment growth and corresponding employment elasticity in South Asian countries during the last two decades. It also investigated the determinants of employment. The study uses the data from the International Labor Organization (ILO) and World Development Indicators of World Bank. The ‘point elasticity’ method has been applied to estimate employment elasticity trends, while a simple panel regression is utilized to assess the determinants of employment. The results indicate that the GDP growth is not employment elastic in most South Asian countries. The study also shows that South Asian economies are not following the path of structural transformation experienced by many developed countries.References
