The
enormous increase in the proportion and number of self-employed
workers in India in recent years is still not adequately
analysed. This paper looks at the conditions of self-employment
in terms of perceptions of remuneration and work intensity.
It is shown that the rising trend of self-employment
reflects the precarious conditions of labour markets
in India, where paid employment is simply not increasing
fast enough to meet the needs of the growing labour
force. |
