Sakshi Kashyap

Abstract :

<p>The nineties era, characterized by information technology revolution, has been an era of improvement in technology< /> and managerial practices. Employment serves as a significant variable in the attainment of inclusive and sustainable< /> growth. Present paper analysis whether the employment growth is with tempo to GDP growth at disaggregated level.< /> It founds that that value added growth and employment growth are positively related but the relation is somewhat subdued. Thus the emerging< /> structure of the economy is characterized by service related sectors that generate higher value addition but do not create employment in< /> consonance with it. Need is for necessary institutions at micro and macro level for successful implementation of policies and programs. </p>
