abstract: 'This paper examines quantitative and qualitative dimensions of
employment issues in India from gender lens. Inequality in quantitative
aspects have been analysed gender gap in work participation, composition
and structure of employment. The study finds that female work
participation in India has declined sharply despite faster economic
growth and improvement in female literacy outcomes. The magnitude of
decline is sharper in case of illiterate, women from less privileged
class and rural backgrounds. Similarly, even after two decades of
economic reform, female workers are highly concentrated in low
productive, less remunerative and unpaid family labour category of self
employment activities. Considering the qualitative dimension of jobs,
the paper finds that the condition of female workers are more vulnerable
as they are highly concentrated in informal sector and informal jobs
with no employment security, no social security, and are being paid
relatively lower wages compared to male workers in most of the
sub-sector. The paper argues for an urgent policy intervention to ensure
access to decent jobs and to provide protection to these vulnerably
placed women workers.'
