Employment

Kerala is generally known as a labour-friendly State. As per 2001population Census, 63.4% of the population was in the age group of 15-59 who

constitute the labour force. Out of India’s total main workers, 2.6% are Keralities.

Today the problem of unemployment is the single largest puzzle of

Kerala Economy. Unemployment is said to prevail when supply of labour exceedsits demand. Growth of supply of labour is determined by population growth and

participation of population on the total work force. In Kerala from the decade of 1970’s onwards there has been a rapid rise in the labour supply because of theincrease in the number of women seeking wage employment. Thus, though thesupply of work seekers increased, the demand for them, did not increase. As aconsequence, there was an alarming increase in unemployment rate from time totime.

The unemployment problem in Kerala is not only about educational

unemployment but also simple unemployment of semi skilled and unskilledworkers. One important feature of Kerala Economy, which makes it different fromthe rest of the country, is net out migration of labour force particularlyto Gulf region and inflow of huge remittances into the state. Huge out migration, as hasbeen rightly pointed out, happens mainly because of lack of employmentopportunity.

To meet the mismatch between supply and demand for manpower theIndustrial Training Department and The Employment Department play acomplementary role. While the former looks after skill training to make themanpower marketable, the later looks after the needs of the work seekers. TheEmployment Department operates about 96 institutions and they provideplacement service, vocational guidance, employment market information, self-

employment guidance, unemployment assistance and self-employment schemesfor the registered unemployed.
