NSS Report No. 543: Employment and unemployment situation among social groups in India NOTES ON TABLES

1. Estimates are provided separately for rural and urban areas and for males and females.

2. The estimates presented in the report, in general, refer to the mid-point of the survey period (July 2009 – June 2010) of NSS 66th round, i.e., 01.01.2010.

3. It may be noted that as the tables are generally presented as ‘per 1000 distribution’ or ‘estimates per 1000’, the figures are rounded off. Thus, while using the ratios from the survey results, it is to be noted that the accuracy of these derived aggre- gates will be limited to the number of significant digits available in the ratio or percentage estimates presented in the report. The estimated aggregates, wherever possible, can be used to get ratios with more significant digits.

4. If there are no sample households/persons in a particular category, the estimates/estimated proportions of households/persons in that category becomes 0. Estimated numbers per 1000 are also shown as 0, when they are greater than 0 but less than 0.5.

5. In the detailed tables, in some of the deeper classifications, some sample sizes may be small and this may have a bearing on the precision of the corresponding estimates.

6. The cell-level figures in the tables, when added up, may not exactly be equal to the figure shown against the ‘total’ column (or line) due to (i) rounding off and/or (ii) presence of non-response cases.

NSS Report No. 543: Employment and unemployment situation among social groups in India Chapter One Introduction

Chapter One Introduction

1.1 The Report in Perspective

1.1.1 The National Sample Survey Office (NSSO), as a part of its 66th round survey programme during the period July 2009 - June 2010, carried out an all-India household survey on the subject of employment and unemployment in India. In this survey, the nation-wide enquiry was conducted to generate estimates of various characteristics pertaining to employment and unemployment and labour force characteristics at the national and State levels. Information on various facets of employment and unemployment in India was collected through a schedule of enquiry (Schedule 10) adopting the established concepts, definitions and procedures. Information on social group was also collected as an associated characteristic for studying the employment and unemployment situation among the various social groups in the country. Based on the data collected, estimates pertaining to some key indicators of employment-unemployment of people belonging to different social groups in India, along with certain features associated with them have been presented in this report. In the survey, information in respect of four social groups viz. scheduled tribe (ST), scheduled caste (SC), other backward class (OBC) and others was collected. The social group to which the head of the household belonged was defined as the social group of that household and all the members of the household, irrespective of their own social group, were assigned the social group of head of the household. The information recorded in this regard was based entirely on the response of the informant and not based on any state level list of social group.

1.2 Genesis of NSS Employment and Unemployment Survey

1.2.1 The quinquennial survey on employment-unemployment is one of the important surveys conducted regularly by the NSSO. The first such survey was done during September 1972 - October 1973 corresponding to the 27th round of NSSO. The present survey is the eighth in the series.

1.2.2 Past Quinquennial Surveys: The assessment of the volume and structure of employment and unemployment using large scale household surveys commenced with the NSS 9th round (May - September, 1955). Subsequently NSSO conducted a number of surveys on this subject to firm up the concepts and methods. The core conceptual framework for conducting such surveys was put in place by an “Expert Committee on Unemployment Estimates” (popularly known as the Dantwala Committee), set up by the Planning Commission. The Expert Committee reviewed these surveys and the indicators generated from such surveys conducted by NSS in the past. The concepts and definitions recommended by this committee formed the basis of the first quinquennial survey on employment and unemployment conducted in the 27th round of NSS (September 1972 – October 1973). Since then, six comprehensive quinquennial surveys on employment and unemployment situation in India have been carried out in the past by the NSSO prior to the present quinquennial survey. These were carried out during the 32nd round (July 1977 – June 1978), 38th round (January 1983 – December 1983), 43rd round (July 1987 – June 1988), 50th round (July 1993 – June 1994), 55th round (July 1999 – June 2000), 61st round (July 2004- June 2005) in which concepts, definitions and procedures were based

NSS Report No. 543: Employment and unemployment situation among social groups in India 1 Chapter One Introduction primarily on the recommendations of the Dantwala Committee. The results of these surveys have been brought out in the form of NSS reports.

1.2.3 Other surveys on employment-unemployment: Apart from these quinquennial surveys on employment and unemployment, NSSO had also been collecting information on certain key items on employment and unemployment, as a part of annual series, from a smaller sample of households in each round since its 45th round (July 1989 - June 1990) through the schedule on Household Consumer Expenditure (Schedule 1.0). The objective of data collected in the annual series was to measure employment and unemployment indicators in terms of the usual and current weekly statuses only and study of these indicators in respect of category of employment, industrial distribution of the usually employed, etc. These procedures continued till the 59th round (January-December 2003) of NSS. In the annual rounds, only activity status and industry of work according to usual principal status, subsidiary status and current weekly status approach were collected through a few columns of the demographic block of the Consumer Expenditure Schedule (Schedule 1.0). Particulars of employment and unemployment according to the usual principal status and usual subsidiary status were collected in the annual rounds by following a similar approach as in the quinquennial rounds. In the quinquennial rounds, particulars of current daily status of the household members are collected and current weekly status is derived from them, whereas in the annual rounds, current weekly status has been obtained through a direct query. In the 60th round (January-June 2004), a separate schedule on employment and unemployment was canvassed for the first time in an annual round and particulars on employment and unemployment was collected in the same manner as that of the quinquennial rounds. In NSS 62nd round (July 2005 - June 2006) and in NSS 64th round (July 2007- June 2008) also a separate schedule on employment and unemployment, similar to the one canvassed during NSS 60th round, was canvassed and particulars on labour force were collected in the manner similar to the quinquennial rounds.

1.3 Scope of NSS 66th round Survey on Employment and Unemployment

1.3.1 The critical issues in the context of labour force enquiries pertain to defining the labour force and measuring participation of labour force in different economic activities. The activity participation of the people is not only dynamic but also multidimensional; it varies over regions, age, education, gender, industry and occupational categories. In NSS surveys, persons are classified into various activity categories on the basis of activities pursued by them during certain specified reference periods. Three reference periods are used in NSS surveys, viz. (i) one year, (ii) one week and (iii) each day of the reference week. Based on these three periods, three different measures of activity status are arrived at. The activity status determined on the basis of the reference period of one year is known as the usual activity status (US) of a person, that determined on the basis of a reference period of one week is known as the current weekly status (CWS) of the person and the activity status determined on the basis of the engagement on each day during the reference week is known as the current daily status (CDS) of the person.

1.3.2 As in the past, information on social group was collected in the NSS 66th round for studying the employment and unemployment situation among the various social groups in the country. Information in respect of four social groups viz., scheduled tribe (ST), scheduled caste (SC), other backward class (OBC) and others was collected. Among the quinquennial rounds, data on Other Backward Class (OBC) were collected as a separate social group for the first time in the 55th round survey.

NSS Report No. 543: Employment and unemployment situation among social groups in India 2 Chapter One Introduction

1.3.3 In NSS 66th round, data on employment-unemployment characteristics were collected through Schedule 10. The schedule captured a range of information on the following aspects:

i) Household characteristics, like household size, religion, social group, land possessed, land cultivated, etc. For the rural households information was collected, on whether the household had Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee (MGNREG) job card, whether got work in MGNREG works during the last 365 days, number of days got work in MGNREG works and mode of payment of the wages earned in MGNREG works. Information on household monthly consumer expenditure was also collected through a worksheet to study the employment-unemployment characteristics with the level of living of the population. ii) Demographic particulars, like age, sex, educational level, status of current attendance and vocational training. iii) Usual principal activity status and subsidiary economic activity status of all the persons. iv) Particulars of the enterprise for all the usual status workers (excluding those engaged in growing of crops and growing of crops combined with farming of animals) viz., location of work place, type of enterprises, number of workers in the enterprise etc. and some particulars on the conditions of employment for the employees, like type of job contract, eligibility for paid leave, availability of social security benefits, etc. For self-employed persons in the usual status, some particulars were collected for identification of home-based workers. v) Extent of underutilization of the labour time and on the qualitative aspects of employment, like changes in activity status, occupation /industry, existence of trade unions/associations, nature of employment (permanent/temporary), etc. vi) Participation in specified activities by the household members who are classified as engaged in domestic duties in the usual principal activity status.

1.4 The survey outline of NSS 66th round survey

1.4.1 Geographical coverage: The survey covered the whole of the Indian Union except (i) interior villages of Nagaland situated beyond five kilometres of the bus route and (ii) villages in Andaman and Nicobar Islands which remained inaccessible throughout the year. However, all the sample first stage units of both rural and urban areas of Leh, Kargil and Poonch districts of Jammu & Kashmir became casualty and therefore these districts were outside the survey coverage.

1.4.2 Sub-round: The fieldwork of the 66th round of NSSO started from 1st July, 2009 and continued till 30th June, 2010. As usual, the survey period of this round was divided into four sub-rounds, each with a duration of three months, the 1st sub-round period ranging from July to September 2009, the 2nd sub-round period from October to December 2009 and so on. An equal number of sample villages/blocks (FSUs) was allotted for survey in each of these four sub-rounds. The survey used the interview method of data collection from a sample of randomly selected households.

NSS Report No. 543: Employment and unemployment situation among social groups in India 3 Chapter One Introduction

1.5 Sample Design 1.5.1 A stratified multi-stage design was adopted for the 66th round survey. The first stage units (FSU) were the 2001 census villages (Panchayat wards in case of Kerala) in the rural sector and Urban Frame Survey (UFS) blocks in the urban sector. In addition, two non- UFS towns of Leh and Kargil of Jammu & Kashmir were also treated as FSUs in the urban sector. The ultimate stage units (USU) were households in both the sectors. Hamlet- groups/sub-blocks constituted the intermediate stage whenever these were formed in the sample FSUs. For the rural sector, the list of 2001 census villages (Panchayat wards in case of Kerala) constituted the sampling frame. For the urban sector, the list of latest available UFS blocks constituted the sampling frame. For non-UFS towns, frame consisted of the individual towns (only two towns, viz., Leh & Kargil constituted this frame). Within each district of a State/ UT, two basic strata were formed as follows: rural stratum comprising all rural areas of the district and urban stratum comprising all the urban areas of the district. However, within the urban areas of a district, if there were one or more towns with population 10 lakhs or more as per population census 2001 in a district, each of them formed a separate basic stratum and the remaining urban areas of the district were considered as another basic stratum. There was no sub-stratification in the urban sector. However, to net adequate number of child workers, for all rural strata, each stratum was divided into 2 sub-strata. These were, sub-stratum 1: all villages with proportion of child workers (p) >2P (where P is the average proportion of child workers for the sate/ UT as per Census 2001) and sub-stratum 2: remaining villages. 1.5.2 At the all-India level, a total number of 12784 FSUs were allocated for survey in the central sample. This sample size was at par with the sample size of NSS 61st round. In addition, 24 State sample FSUs (16 for rural sector and 8 for urban sector) of Leh and Kargil districts of J & K were included in the central sample. The total number of sample FSUs was allocated to the States and UTs in proportion to population as per census 2001 subject to the availability of investigators and ensuring minimum sample allocation to each State/ UT. The State/ UT level sample size was allocated between two sectors in proportion to population as per census 2001 with double weightage to urban sector subject to the restriction that urban sample size for bigger states like Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, etc. did not exceed the rural sample size. A minimum of 16 FSUs (to the extent possible) was allocated to each state/ UT separately for rural and urban areas. Further the State level allocations for both rural and urban areas were adjusted marginally in a few cases to ensure that each stratum/ sub-stratum got a minimum allocation of 4 FSUs. Within each sector of a State/ UT, the respective sample size was allocated to the different strata/ sub- strata in proportion to the population as per census 2001. Allocations at stratum/ sub- stratum level were adjusted to multiples of 4 with a minimum sample size of 4 and equal number of samples was allocated among the four sub rounds. 1.5.3 For the rural sector, from each stratum/ sub-stratum, required number of sample villages were selected by probability proportional to size with replacement (PPSWR), size being the population of the village as per Census 2001. For urban sector, from each stratum FSUs were selected by using Simple Random Sampling Without Replacement (SRSWOR). Both rural and urban samples were drawn in the form of two independent sub-samples. All households listed in the selected village/block/ hamlet-groups/sub-blocks were stratified into three second stage strata (SSS). A total of 8 households were selected from each sample village/block for canvassing the employment and un-employment schedule. The sample households from each of the second stage strata were selected by SRSWOR.

NSS Report No. 543: Employment and unemployment situation among social groups in India 4 Chapter One Introduction

1.5.4 Out of the total number of 12,808 FSUs (7,524 villages and 5,284 urban blocks) allotted for the central sample1 (including 24 state sample FSUs of Leh and Kargil districts of J & K: 16 for rural sector and 8 for urban sector), 12,654 FSUs (7,402 villages and 5,252 urban blocks) could be surveyed at the all-India level for canvassing Schedule 10. The number of households surveyed was 1,00,957 (59,129 in rural areas and 41,828 in urban areas) and number of persons surveyed was 4,59,784 (2,81,327 in rural areas and 1,78,457 in urban areas). The sample design and estimation procedure used for the survey is given in Appendix B of this report. 1.5.5 The domains of rural and urban sector in the survey are co-terminus with the criterion adopted in census. The urban frame used in the survey is the latest updated UFS that takes into account the newly declared towns after the last census 2001.Accordingly the rural sector is the one that is not urban. 1.6. Contents of the Report 1.6.1 Based on the data collected in NSS 66th round, estimates pertaining to the employment and unemployment situation among the various social groups in the country, along with certain other features associated with them have been presented in this report. 1.6.2 This report contains three chapters including the present introduction and four appendices. Chapter Two discusses the concepts and definitions of only those terms that are relevant in connection with various items covered in this report. Chapter Three presents the main findings of the survey with respect to the different social groups. The detailed tables forming the basis of this report are presented in Appendix A. Appendix B gives a detailed description of the sample design and estimation procedure used for the survey. In Appendix C, the Projected Population as on 1st March 2009 and 1st March 2010 supplied by RGI Office have been presented along with those projected for 1st January 2010 using compound rate of growth. The projections have been given for, male and female, separately, for rural and urban for each State/U.T. Appendix D gives a facsimile of the schedule canvassed in the survey. The detailed Tables (Appendix A) are given in a CD along with the report. 1.7 NSS 66th Round Reports on Employment and Unemployment 1.7.1 The results of NSS rounds are released in reports based on comprehensive tabulation of subject parameters and indicators in various cross classifications generated from the central sample data. Corresponding to NSS 66th round quinquennial survey on Employment and Unemployment, the results are planned for release in eight reports. In addition to these eight reports planned, Key Indicators of Employment and Unemployment in India, 2009-10 had already been released in June 2011. Of the eight reports, the present one is the third in the series of reports, while Report no. 537 (Employment and Unemployment Situation in India, 2009-10) and Report no. 539 (Informal Sector and Conditions of Employment in India) have already been released. The tentative titles of the remaining five reports planned to be released are: (i) Status of Education and Vocational Training in India (ii) Participation of Women in Specified Activities along with Domestic Duties (iii) Employment and Unemployment situation in Cities and Towns in India (iv) Home-based Workers in India (v) Employment and Unemployment situation among Major Religious groups in India.

1 The sample selected for NSS 66th round which was surveyed by NSSO is termed “Central sample”. As is usual in the regular NSS rounds, most States and Union Territories participated in the survey: the sample surveyed by State Government officials is termed as “State sample”.

NSS Report No. 543: Employment and unemployment situation among social groups in India 5 Chapter Two Concepts and Definitions

Chapter Two

Concepts and Definitions

2.0 The concepts and definitions of some important terms used in the survey and relevant to this report are explained in the following paragraphs.

2.1 Household: A group of persons who normally lived together and took food from a common kitchen constituted a household. The adverb “normally” means that temporary visitors and guests (whose total period of stay in the household was expected to be less than 6 months) were excluded but temporary stay-aways (whose total period of absence from the household was expected to be less than 6 months) were included. Thus a child residing in a hostel for studies was excluded from the household of his/her parents, but a resident domestic servant or paying guest (but not just a tenant in the house) was included in the employer’s/host’s household. “Living together” was given more importance than “sharing food from a common kitchen” in drawing the boundaries of a household in case the two criteria were in conflict. However, in the special case of a person taking food with his family but sleeping elsewhere (say, in a shop or a different house) due to shortage of space, the household formed by such a person’s family members was taken to include the person also. Each inmate of a hotel, mess, boarding-lodging house, hostel, etc., was considered to be a single-member household except that a family living in a hotel (say) was considered one household only. The same principle was applicable for the residential staff of such establishments. The size of a household is the total number of persons in the household.

2.2 Social group: For each household surveyed, the social group to which the head of the household belonged to was recorded. The social group of the head of the household was considered as the social group of all the members of the household irrespective of the actual social group to which the individual members belonged. In the survey, information in respect of four social groups viz. scheduled tribe (ST), scheduled caste (SC), other backward class (OBC) and the rest referred to as others was collected. The information recorded in this regard was based entirely on the response of the informant and not based on any state or central level list of the social group.

2.3 Land possessed by the household as on date of survey: The area of land possessed included land ‘owned’, ‘leased in’ and ‘land neither owned nor leased in’ (i.e. encroached) by the household but excluded land 'leased out'. For a piece of land under the possession of the household, if the household did not have the title of ownership and also did not have lease agreement for the use of land transacted, either orally or in writing, such land was considered as ‘neither owned nor leased in’. In collecting information regarding land possessed, the actual position as obtained on the date of survey was considered. The ‘area of land possessed’ did not include the area of land owned, leased-in, etc. by the servants/paying guests who were considered as normal members of the household, as per the definition of household taken up for the survey.

2.4 Land cultivated (including orchard and plantation) during July 2008-June 2009: Land cultivated (including orchard and plantation) during the agricultural year 2008-2009, i.e., July

NSS Report No. 543: Employment and unemployment situation among social groups in India 6 Chapter Two Concepts and Definitions

2008 to June 2009 was recorded considering cultivation of land from the land 'owned', 'land leased-in' or from 'land neither owned nor leased-in'. Area with field crops and area under orchards and plantations was counted only once in the same year/ season. It may be noted that information on land owned, possessed or cultivated as described above was collected in hectares upto 3 places of decimals.

2.5 Age (years): The age in completed years, as on the date of survey, of the household members were recorded.

2.6 General educational level: A person was considered as literate if he/she could both read and write a simple message with understanding in at least one language. For all the individuals who were found to be literate, the general level of education was collected in terms of highest level of education successfully completed. Highest level of education successfully completed by each member of the household was decided by considering his/ her all general/ technical/ vocational educational level and was recorded in terms of 12 categories viz. (i) not literate, (ii) literate without formal schooling: (a) Education Guarantee Scheme (EGS)/Non-formal Education Courses (NFEC)/ Adult Literacy Centres (AEC), (b) Total Literacy Campaign (TLC), (c) others; (iii) literate but below primary, (iv) primary (v) middle, (vi) secondary, (vii) higher secondary, (viii) diploma/certificate course, (ix) graduate, and (x) postgraduate and above. The criterion for deciding primary, middle, secondary, etc. levels were the same as that has been followed in the concerned states/union territories. The category ‘diploma or certificate course’ meant diploma or certificate courses in general education, technical education or vocational education, which is below graduation level. Diploma or certificate courses in general education, technical education or vocational education, which is equivalent to graduation level, was considered under the category ‘graduate’. Similarly, diploma or certificate courses in general education, technical education or vocational education, which is equivalent to post-graduation level and above were considered under the category ‘post-graduate and above’.

2.7 Status of current attendance in educational institution: Particulars of current attendance in educational institution were recorded for persons of age below 30 years. It was first ascertained whether the person was currently attending any educational institutions (government or private) or not. For persons who were not currently attending any educational institutions, reason for not attending viz. (i) school too far, (ii) to supplement household income, (iii) education not considered necessary, (iv) to attend domestic chores, and (v) others, was recorded. For those who were currently attending any educational institution, the course of study pursued by them was recorded in terms of 23 categories viz. (i) EGS/NFEC/AEC, (ii) TLC, (iii) pre-primary (nursery/Kinder garten, etc.), (iv) primary (class I to IV/V), (v) middle, (vi) secondary, (vii) higher secondary, (viii) graduate in: (a) agriculture, (b) engineering/technology, (c) medicine, (d) other subjects; (ix) post graduate and above, (x) diploma or certificate (below graduate level) in: (a) agriculture, (b) engineering/technology, (c) medicine, (d) crafts, (e) other subjects, (xi) diploma or certificate (graduate level) in: (a) agriculture, (b) engineering/technology, (c) medicine, (d) crafts, (e) other subject; (xii) diploma or certificate in post graduate and above level. Persons who were registered for any regular correspondence courses or distance education courses for a stipulated period at the end of which, were allowed to appear in the examination for the

NSS Report No. 543: Employment and unemployment situation among social groups in India 7 Chapter Two Concepts and Definitions course, was also considered as ‘currently attending’. Persons who were awaiting results were also considered as ‘currently attending’.

2.8 Economic activity: The entire spectrum of human activity falls into two categories – economic activities and non-economic activities. Any activity resulting in production of goods and services that add value to national product was considered as an economic activity for the employment and unemployment survey. Such activities included production of all goods and services for market (i.e. for pay or profit) including those of government services, and, the production of primary commodities for own consumption and own account production of fixed assets.

2.8.1 The full spectrum of economic activities as defined in the UN system of National Accounts was not covered in the definition adopted for the NSS 66th round survey of Employment and Unemployment. Production of any good for own consumption is considered as economic activity by UN System of National Accounts but production of only primary goods for own consumption was considered as economic activity by NSSO. While the former considers activities like own account processing of primary products as economic activities, in the NSS surveys, processing of primary products for own consumption was not considered as economic activity.

2.8.2 The term 'economic activity' as defined in the employment and unemployment survey of NSS 66th round, therefore, included:

(i) all the market activities performed for pay or profit which result in production of goods and services for exchange.

(ii) of the non-market activities,

(a) all the activities relating to the primary sector (i.e. industry Divisions 01 to 14 of NIC-2004) which result in production (including free collection of uncultivated crops, forestry, firewood, hunting, fishing, mining, quarrying, etc.) of primary goods for own consumption and

(b) activities relating to the own-account production of fixed assets, which include production of fixed assets including construction of own houses, roads, wells, etc., and of machinery, tools, etc., for household enterprise and also construction of any private or community facilities free of charge. A person may be engaged in own account construction in the capacity of either a labourer or a supervisor.

As per the practice followed in earlier rounds, certain activities like prostitution, begging, etc., which though fetched earnings, were not considered as economic activities. Activity status of a person was judged irrespective of the situation whether such activity was carried out illegally in the form of smuggling or not.

NSS Report No. 543: Employment and unemployment situation among social groups in India 8 Chapter Two Concepts and Definitions

2.9 Activity status: It is the activity situation in which a person was found participated in economic and non-economic activities during the reference period. According to this, a person could be in one or a combination of the following three broad activity statuses during a reference period:

(i) working or being engaged in economic activity (work) as defined above, (ii) being not engaged in economic activity (work) but either making tangible efforts to seek 'work' or being available for 'work' if 'work' is available and (iii) being not engaged in any economic activity (work) and also not available for 'work'. Broad activity statuses mentioned in (i) and (ii) above are associated with 'being in labour force' and the last with 'not being in the labour force'. Within the labour force, broad activity status (i) and (ii) were associated with 'employment' and ‘unemployment’, respectively.

2.9.1 Identification of each individual in terms of a unique activity status could pose a problem when more than one of the three broad activity statuses listed above were concurrently obtained in a person. In such an eventuality, the identification uniquely under any one of the three broad activity statuses was done by adopting either the major time or priority criterion. The former was used for classification of persons according to the 'usual activity status' approach and the latter for classification of persons according to the ‘current activity status’ approach. Each of the three broad activity statuses was further sub-divided into several detailed activity categories. If a person categorised as engaged in economic activity by adopting one of the two criteria mentioned above was found to be pursuing more than one economic activity during the reference period, the appropriate detailed activity status code was connected to that activity in which relatively long time had been spent. A similar procedure was adopted for assigning detailed activity code for persons categorised as engaged in non-economic activity and pursuing more than one non-economic activities.

2.9.2 This report discusses various employment and unemployment indicators according to usual status approach and as such the discussions of the concepts relevant for usual status approach have only been made. The detailed activity statuses under each of the three broad activity statuses (viz. ‘employed’, ‘unemployed’ and ‘not in labour force’) and the corresponding codes used in usual status approach are given below: code description

working (or employed) self-employed 11 worked in household enterprises (self-employed) as own-account worker 12 worked in household enterprises (self-employed) as an employer 21 worked in household enterprises (self-employed) as helper regular wage/ salaried employee 31 worked as regular wage/salaried employee

91 attended educational institutions 92 attended to domestic duties only 93 attended to domestic duties and was also engaged in free collection of goods (vegetables, roots, firewood, cattle feed, etc.), sewing, tailoring, weaving, etc. for household use 94 rentiers, pensioners, remittance recipients, etc. 95 not able to work owing to disability 97 others (including beggars, prostitutes, etc.) 98 did not work owing to sickness (for casual workers only) 99 children of age 0-4 years

2.10 Workers (or employed): Persons who were engaged in any economic activity or who, despite their attachment to economic activity, abstained themselves from work for reason of illness, injury or other physical disability, bad weather, festivals, social or religious functions or other contingencies necessitating temporary absence from work, constituted workers. Unpaid helpers who assisted in the operation of an economic activity in the household farm or non-farm activities were also considered as workers. In the usual status relevant activity status codes 11 to 51 were assigned for workers. Workers were further categorized as self-employed (relevant activity status codes: 11, 12, 21), regular salaried/wage employee (relevant activity status codes: 31), and casual wage labour (relevant activity status codes: 41 and 51).

2.11 Seeking or available for work (or unemployed): Persons who, owing to lack of work, had not worked but either sought work through employment exchanges, intermediaries, friends or relatives or by making applications to prospective employers or expressed their willingness or availability for work under the prevailing conditions of work and remuneration, were considered as those ‘seeking or available for work’ (or unemployed). In the usual status, activity status codes 81 were assigned for unemployed. 2.12 Labour force: Persons who were either 'working' (or employed) or 'seeking or available for work' (or unemployed) constituted the labour force. In the usual status, persons with activity status codes 11 – 81 constituted the labour force. 2.13 Not in labour force: Persons who were neither 'working' nor 'seeking or available for work' for various reasons during the reference period were considered as 'not in labour force'. Persons under this category are students, those engaged in domestic duties, rentiers,

NSS Report No. 543: Employment and unemployment situation among social groups in India 10 Chapter Two Concepts and Definitions pensioners, recipients of remittances, those living on alms, infirm or disabled persons, too young persons, prostitutes, etc. and casual labourers not working due to sickness. Activity status codes 91-95, 97 and 98 were assigned for persons belonging to category 'not in labour force'. For the purpose of this report, status code 99 was assigned to children of age 0-4 years.

2.14 Self-employed: Persons who operated their own farm or non-farm enterprises or were engaged independently in a profession or trade on own-account or with one or a few partners were treated as self-employed in household enterprises. The essential feature of the self- employed is that they have autonomy (decide how, where and when to produce) and economic independence (in respect of choice of market, scale of operation and finance) for carrying out their operation. The remuneration of the self-employed consists of a non-separable combination of two parts: a reward for their labour and profit of their enterprise. The combined remuneration is wholly determined by the revenue from sales after netting out value of purchased inputs used in production.

2.14.1 Categories of self-employed persons: Self-employed persons were categorised as follows:

(i) own-account workers: those self-employed persons who operated their enterprises on their own account or with one or a few partners and who, during the reference period, by and large, ran their enterprise without hiring any labour. They could, however, have had unpaid helpers to assist them in the activity of the enterprise;

(ii) employers: those self-employed persons who worked on their own account or with one or a few partners and, who, by and large, ran their enterprise by hiring labour; and

(iii) helpers in household enterprise: those self-employed persons (mostly family members) who were engaged in their household enterprises, working full or part time and did not receive any regular salary or wages in return for the work performed. They did not run the household enterprise on their own but assisted the related person living in the same household in running the household enterprise.

2.15 Regular wage/salaried employee: These were persons who worked in others’ farm or non-farm enterprises (both household and non-household) and, in return, received salary or wages on a regular basis (i.e. not on the basis of daily or periodic renewal of work contract). This category included not only persons getting time wage but also persons receiving piece wage or salary and paid apprentices, both full time and part-time.

2.16 Casual wage labourer: A person who was casually engaged in others’ farm or non-farm enterprises (both household and non-household) and, in return, received wages according to the terms of the daily or periodic work contract, was a casual wage labourer.

2.17 Public works: ‘Public works’ were those activities which were sponsored by Government or Local Bodies, and which covered local area development works like construction of roads, dams, bunds, digging of ponds, etc., as relief measures, or as an NSS Report No. 543: Employment and unemployment situation among social groups in India 11 Chapter Two Concepts and Definitions outcome of employment generation schemes under the poverty alleviation programme such as Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee (MGNREG) public works, Sampoorna Grameen Rozgar Yojana (SGRY), National Food for Work Programme (NFFWP), etc. The coverage of schemes under ‘public works’ was restricted to those schemes through which the Government generated wage employment under poverty alleviation programme, or relief measures. The types of works that were generally undertaken through these schemes, were watershed development, drought proofing, land levelling, flood control, laying pipes or cables, sanitation, water harvesting, irrigation canal, development of orchard, road construction, building construction / repair, running crèche, etc. To distinguish between ‘public works’ and works not classifiable as ‘public works’, some broad characteristics of ‘public work’ were identified, viz. the primary objective is generation of wage employment and poverty alleviation, and creation of community asset as an outcome in achieving those main objectives.

2.18 Different approaches followed to determine activity status: The persons surveyed were classified into various activity categories on the basis of the activities pursued by them during certain specified reference periods. There were three reference periods for this survey. These are: (i) one year (ii) one week and (iii) each day of the reference week. Based on these three periods, three different measures of activity status are arrived at. These are termed respectively as usual status, current weekly status and current daily status. In this report, the various indicators of employment and unemployment have been presented in the usual status approach. The procedure adopted to arrive at the usual status are elucidated below.

2.18.1 Usual principal activity status: The usual activity status relates to the activity status of a person during the reference period of 365 days preceding the date of survey. The activity status on which a person spent relatively long time (i.e. major time criterion) during the 365 days preceding the date of survey is considered as the usual principal activity status of the person. To decide the usual principal activity of a person, first a two stage dichotomous classification was followed for determining the broad usual principal activity status (employed or unemployed or not in labour force) of the person. At the first stage, persons were first categorised as those in the labour force (either employed or unemployed) and those not in the labour force depending on the major time spent during the 365 days preceding the date of survey. Persons thus adjudged as not belonging to the labour force were assigned the broad activity status 'neither working nor available for work' (not in the labour force). At the second stage, for persons belonging to the labour force, the broad activity status of either 'working' (employed) or ‘not working but seeking and/or available for work’ (unemployed) was ascertained based on the same criterion viz. relatively long time spent in accordance with either of the two broad statuses within the labour force during the 365 days preceding the date of survey. Within the broad activity status so determined, the detailed activity status of a person pursuing more than one such activity was determined once again on the basis of the relatively long time spent on such activities. In terms of activity status codes, codes 11-51 were assigned to persons classified as workers and codes 91-97 to those not in the labour force. In the usual status approach, a single code 81 was assigned to persons seeking or available for work (unemployed persons) while two separate codes 81 (sought work) and 82 (did not seek but was available for work) were assigned to unemployed persons according to current weekly status and current daily status approach.

NSS Report No. 543: Employment and unemployment situation among social groups in India 12 Chapter Two Concepts and Definitions

2.18.2 Usual subsidiary economic activity status: A person whose usual principal status was determined on the basis of the major time criterion could have pursued some economic activity for a shorter time throughout the reference year of 365 days preceding the date of survey or for a minor period, which is not less than 30 days, during the reference year. The status in which such economic activity was pursued was the subsidiary economic activity status of that person. Activity status codes 11 to 51 only were used for the subsidiary economic activity performed by a person. It may be noted that engagement in work in subsidiary capacity may arise out of the two following situations: (i) a person may be engaged in a relatively long period during the last 365 days in some economic (non-economic) activity and for a relatively minor period, which is not less than 30 days (not necessarily for a continuous period), in another economic activity (any economic activity). The economic activity, which was pursued for a relatively minor period but not simultaneously with principal activity, was considered as his/her subsidiary economic activity.

(ii) a person may be pursuing an economic activity (non-economic activity) almost throughout the year in the principal status and also simultaneously pursuing another economic activity (any economic activity) for a relatively short time in a subsidiary capacity. The economic activity, which was pursued for a relatively short time, was considered as his/her subsidiary economic activity. 2.18.3 Usual activity status considering principal and subsidiary status taken together: The usual status, determined on the basis of the usual principal activity and usual subsidiary economic activity of a person taken together, is considered as the usual activity status of the person and is written as usual status (ps+ss). According to the usual status (ps+ss), workers are those who perform some work activity either in the principal status or in the subsidiary status. Thus, a person who is not a worker in the usual principal status is considered as worker according to the usual status (ps+ss), if the person pursues some subsidiary economic activity for 30 days or more during 365 days preceding the date of survey.

2.19 Household type: On the basis of the sources of the household's income during the last 365 days preceding the date of survey, the household types were assigned. For this purpose, only the household's income from economic activities was considered. The income of servants and paying guests was not taken as the income of the household. For the rural areas, household types were as follows:

self-employed in non-agriculture; agricultural labour; other labour; self-employed in agriculture; others.

For urban areas, the household types were as follows:

self-employed; regular wage/salary earning; casual labour ; others.

NSS Report No. 543: Employment and unemployment situation among social groups in India 13 Chapter Two Concepts and Definitions

2.20 Industry and occupation of the work activity: For the employed persons, to record the industry of work, 5-digit classification of NIC-2004 was used and to record the type of occupation, 3-digit classification of NCO-2004 was used. To identify certain category of workers under Division 95 (Private households with employed persons) of NIC-2004, eight additional codes were used in the survey viz., housemaid /servant (95001), cook (95002), gardener (95003), gatekeeper/chowkidar/watchman (95004), governess/baby-sitter (95005), tutor (95006), driver (95007) and ‘others’ (95009). Industry Divisions 96 (except the activities covered in other Industry Divisions) and 97 of NIC-2004 were not used for the purpose of collection of information on industry of activity. The entire activities described under Division 97 are not under the production boundary of Indian System of National Accounts (ISNA) and are not also considered as economic activities in the NSS survey. A part of the activities under Division 96 (viz., hunting and gathering, farming and the production of shelter), which is within the production boundary of ISNA, is also considered as economic activities in NSS surveys and the industry of these undifferentiated activities were judged in the usual manner as done now, by considering the industry in which major time was spent. Thus, this part of activities got classified against the respective industries under divisions 01- 14 relating to the primary sector or 45 relating to construction. The rest of Division 96 is outside the production boundary of ISNA and was not considered as economic activity for the NSS survey.

2.21 Manual work: A job essentially involving physical labour was considered manual work. However, jobs essentially involving physical labour but also requiring a certain level of general, professional, scientific or technical education were not termed as 'manual work'. On the other hand, jobs not involving much of physical labour and at the same time not requiring much educational (general, scientific, technical or otherwise) background were treated as 'manual work'. Thus, engineers, doctors, dentists, midwives, etc., were not considered manual workers even though their jobs involved some amount of physical labour. But, peons, chowkidars, watchman, etc. were considered manual workers even though their work might not involve much physical labour. A few examples of manual workers are cooks, waiters, building caretakers, sweepers, cleaners and related workers, launderers, dry cleaners and pressers, hair dressers, barbers, beauticians, watchmen, gate keepers, agricultural labourers, plantation labourers and related workers.

2.22 Rural labour: Manual labour working in agricultural and /or non-agricultural occupations in return for wages paid either in cash or in kind (excluding exchange labour) and living in rural areas, was taken as rural labour.

2.23 Agricultural labour: A person was considered as engaged as agricultural labour, if he/she followed one or more of the following agricultural occupations in the capacity of a wage paid manual labour, whether paid in cash or kind or both:

(i) farming, (ii) dairy farming, (iii) production of any horticultural commodity, (iv) raising of livestock, bees or poultry,

NSS Report No. 543: Employment and unemployment situation among social groups in India 14 Chapter Two Concepts and Definitions

(v) any practice performed on a farm as incidental to or in conjunction with farm operations (including forestry and timbering) and the preparation for market and delivery to storage or to market or to carriage for transportation to market of farm produce.

Working in fisheries was excluded from agricultural labour. Further, 'carriage for transportation' referred only to the first stage of the transport from farm to the first place of disposal.

2.24 Wage paid-manual labour: A person who did manual work in return for wages in cash or kind or partly in cash and partly in kind (excluding exchange labour) was considered as a wage paid manual labour. Salaries were also counted as wages. A person who was self- employed in manual work was not treated as a wage paid manual labour.

2.25 Procedure for collecting monthly per capita consumer expenditure (MPCE): For collection of data on total expenditure of the household from employment and unemployment schedule (Schedule 10), a worksheet was used in the Schedule 10 of the 66th round. The approximate value of consumer expenditure obtained through the worksheet has been used for studying employment and unemployment characteristics by different levels of living of the household members. The worksheet contained 36 different components of household consumer expenditure. Depending upon the type of item, either of the two reference periods viz,. 30 days and 365 days, was used to record consumption of different groups of items. The items of consumption were classified into four groups and three different approaches viz (a) consumption approach, (b) expenditure approach and (c) first-use approach, were followed for defining consumption of items. The different groups were (i) food (other than ‘cooked meals’), pan, tobacco & intoxicants and fuel & light, (ii) cooked meals, miscellaneous goods and services including education, medical, rent, taxes and cess, (iii) clothing and footwear and (iv) durable goods. The procedure followed for defining consumption of the four groups were (i) consumption approach, (ii) expenditure approach, (iii) first-use approach and (iv) expenditure approach, respectively. The definition of household consumer expenditure and the procedure for evaluating that was the same for both Schedule 10 and Schedule 1.0 (Household Consumer Expenditure).

2.26 Conceptual Framework of Key Employment and Unemployment Indicators

2.26.1 Labour force participation rate (LFPR): LFPR is defined as the number of persons in the labour force per 1000 persons.

2.26.2 Worker Population Ratio (WPR): WPR defined as the number of persons employed per 1000 persons.

2.26.3 Proportion Unemployed (PU): It is defined as the number of persons unemployed per 1000 persons.

2.26.4 Unemployment Rate (UR): UR is defined as the number of persons unemployed per 1000 persons in the labour force (which includes both the employed and unemployed).

NSS Report No. 543: Employment and unemployment situation among social groups in India 15 Chapter Two Concepts and Definitions

2.26.5 Usual status adjusted UR: Unemployment rates for the reference period of 365 days, i.e., in usual principal status (ps) approximates an indicator of chronically unemployed. Some of the persons categorised as unemployed according to the usual principal activity status might be working in a subsidiary capacity. Therefore, another estimate of the unemployed excluding those employed in a subsidiary capacity during the reference period can be derived. The former is called the usually unemployed according to the principal status (ps) and the latter, the usually unemployed excluding employed in subsidiary status or usual status adjusted i.e., us (adjusted), which would conceptually be lower than the former.

2.26.6 Key employment-unemployment indicators are derived as follows:

NSS Report No. 543: Employment and unemployment situation among social groups in India 16 Chapter Three Summary of Findings

Chapter Three Summary of Findings

3.1 Introduction 3.1.1 General: As stated earlier, this report primarily deals with the employment and unemployment situation during 2009-10 among persons belonging to the four social groups, viz., scheduled tribe (ST), scheduled caste (SC), other backward class (OBC) and the rest referred to as others. However, before studying their employment - unemployment situation, some broad indicators pertaining to household and population characteristics of the different social groups are discussed first. As such, the variation by social group in the level or pattern of a few household or population characteristics like (i) distribution of households by household type (i.e. nature or type of work from which the household derived maximum income during the 365 days preceding the date of survey), (ii) distribution of population in different social groups, (iii) literacy, (iv) distribution of households by land possessed or land cultivated, etc., are taken up for discussion in the next section. The main findings with respect to the indicators of employment and unemployment are then presented in Section 3 of this chapter.

3.1.2 Reference period of the estimates: The estimates presented in the report, in general, refer to the mid-point of the survey period (July 2009– June 2010) of NSS 66th round i.e. 01.01.10. The estimates for ‘land cultivated’ have the reference period of the agricultural year 2008-09 i.e. July 2008 –June 2009.

3.1.3 Use of estimated aggregates: The estimates of key employment and unemployment characteristics for different social groups are generally presented, as ratios. However, the esti- mates of aggregates are also given in the margin of the detailed tables presented for all-India levels. It may be noted that estimates of ratios are generally expected to be robust and the estimates of aggregates may be used only to combine the ratios. However, to arrive at estimated absolute number in any category, the users may apply the survey estimates of ratios to the census population or projections1. It may also be noted that as the tables are generally presented as ‘per 1000 distribution’ or rates ‘per 1000’, the figures are rounded off. Thus, while using the ratios from the survey results, it is to be noted that the accuracy of these derived aggre- gates will be limited to the number of significant digits available in such ratios. To arrive at the absolute number in any category, the survey estimates of ratios are to be applied to the projected populations as on 01.01.2010, the mid-point of the 66th round survey period (July 2009 to June 2010). 3.1.4 It may be mentioned that discussions are mainly centered on the all-India estimates. A comparison with the results of 55th round (July 1999 – June 2000) and 61st round (July 2004 – June 2005) is also made in some cases at the all-India level. While all-India summary results are presented along with the write-up, the corresponding results at the state/union territory

1 In Appendix C, the Projected Population as on 1st March 2009 and 1st March 2010 supplied by RGI Office have been presented along with those projected for 1st January 2010 using compound rate of growth. The projections have been given for, male and female, separately, for rural and urban for each State/U.T. These population projections pre-date the population Census 2011 results. NSS Report No. 543: Employment and unemployment situation among social groups in India 17 Chapter Three Summary of Findings level are given at the end of this chapter. The detailed tables showing the survey results at the all-India level are given in Appendix A.

3.1.5 It may be noted that the scope of the survey being all households without special focus on social groups, sample design was not tailored to netting in special social groups like Scheduled Caste (SC) and Scheduled Tribe (ST) households, etc. Since ST households are concentrated in a few states and SC households are geographically dispersed, the reliability of state level results is critically dependent on the sample size of the households of the different social groups which happened to be netted in a general-purpose representative sample of households. It may be noted that the number of sample households for a particular social group of a state/union territory may not be adequate enough in providing sufficiently reliable estimates of the various indicators and therefore, the estimates for the different social groups for the states/union territories are to be used after taking due account of the sample number of households for different social groups of the states/union territories. This caution is sounded upfront for the interpretation of state level results for social groups.

3.2 Households and Population

3.2.1 Number of Households Surveyed by Social Group

3.2.1.1 In order to form a judgment about the reliability of estimates pertaining to various social groups at the state/union territory level, one may like to have an idea of the respective sample sizes based on which the survey results/estimates have been obtained. Statement 3.0 gives the number of households surveyed and Statement 3.1 gives the number of persons surveyed in the 66th round by social group for different states/union territories and at the all- India level with rural-urban break-up (placed at the end of this write-up, pages 44-46). The statement shows that there are a good numbers of states/union territories where the number of surveyed households/persons for some social groups is rather low.

3.2.1.2 The total number of households surveyed at the all-India level was 1,00,957 (59,129 in rural areas and 41,828 in urban areas). The number of sample households for the social groups scheduled tribe (ST), scheduled caste (SC), other backward class (OBC) and others were 9622, 10624, 22570, 16277 respectively, in the rural areas and 3306, 5557, 15302, 17635 respectively, in the urban areas.

3.2.2 Distribution of Households

3.2.2.1 Distribution of households by social group: As per the 66th round (July 2009 - June 2010) survey estimates, about 70.5 per cent households of India belonged to rural areas. Statement 3.2 gives per 1000 distribution of households of India by social group separately for the rural and urban areas. Similar distribution for different states/union territories is given in Statement 3.2.1. Statement 3.2 shows that during 2009-10, nearly 8.5 per cent of the households in the country belonged to scheduled tribes (ST) and about 19.8 per cent belonged

NSS Report No. 543: Employment and unemployment situation among social groups in India 18 Chapter Three Summary of Findings to scheduled castes (SC)2. About 41.2 per cent of the households belonged to the other backward class (OBC) category. The corresponding proportions of households, in the rural areas, were 10.9 per cent, 22.2 per cent and 42.2 per cent, respectively, and in the urban areas, only about 2.9 per cent, 14 per cent and 38.8 per cent, respectively.

3.2.2.2 Changes over time: The distribution of households by social group, obtained from the 55th round (1999-2000) and NSS 61st (2004-05) survey, is also presented in Statement 3.2. While the proportion of households for the SCs and STs, in India, remained at the same level as that was observed during the period 1999-2000 to 2009-10 (proportion of ST households was 9.1 per cent in 1999-2000 and 8.5 per cent in 2009-10 while the proportion of SC households was 20 per cent in 1999-2000 and 19.8 per cent in 2009-10), the proportion of OBC households increased by nearly 5.9 percentage points during this period. This growth in the share of OBC households is observed for of both the rural and urban areas but the growth was more in urban areas than in rural areas: in rural areas the proportion of OBC households increased from 36.9 per cent to 42.2 per cent while in urban areas, it increased from 31.1 per cent to 38.8 per cent during 1999-2000 to 2009-10.

Statement 3.2: Per 1000 distribution of households among different social groups in NSS 55th (1999 - 2000) , 61st (2004 - 2005) and 66th (July 2009- June 2010) rounds

Distribution of persons by social group at the all-India level is presented in Statement 3.3, separately for males and females in the rural and urban areas. The distributions of persons by social group for different states/union territories are given in Statement 3.3.1. A similar pattern as for the households is revealed in the distribution of person over the social groups in the rural and urban areas of all- India and states. The proportions of persons belonging to the categories ST, SC and OBC

2 NSS estimates of proportion of ST or SC households/population are not strictly comparable with the corresponding figures available from Population Census due to the differences in definitions adopted. The NSSO classifies a household (and accordingly all persons within a household) as ST or SC if the informant reports the head of the household to be so. On the other hand, in the Population Census, a person enumerated is classified as belonging to ST or SC if he or she is covered in the list of STs/SCs furnished to the enumerator with respect to his/her state/union territory. The divergence of the NSS estimates of ST/SC households or population from the Census figures may also partially be due to the limitation of sample size which the NSS estimates are subjected to. NSS Report No. 543: Employment and unemployment situation among social groups in India 19 Chapter Three Summary of Findings were about 8.7 per cent, 19.9 per cent and 41.7 per cent, respectively, at the all-India level. The corresponding proportions were 10.9 per cent, 21.9 per cent and 42.6 per cent, respectively in the rural areas and about 2.8 per cent, 14.5 per cent and 39.4 per cent, respectively in the urban areas. The differences in the two sets of distributions given in Statements 3.2 and 3.3 may be attributed to the differences in the household size across the social groups.

3.2.4 Distribution of Households by Household Type

3.2.4.1 Each surveyed household was categorised into an appropriate ‘household type’ according to major source of household income during the last 365 days. 5 household types were distinguished in the rural and 4 in the urban areas (see Para 2.19 of Chapter Two). The distribution of households of each social group by household type has been presented in statements 3.5 and 3.6 for rural and urban areas separately. The corresponding results for various states/union territories are given in Statements 3.5.1 and 3.6.1.

3.2.4.2 In rural areas: Statement 3.5 shows that in rural India, proportion of households depending on self-employment (SE) was highest among the households in residual social group categorized as others (57.4 per cent) followed by OBC households (51.3 per cent), ST (44 per cent) and SC (30.7 per cent). On the other hand, proportion of rural labour (RL) households was much higher among ST (46.5 per cent) and SC (about 58.9 per cent) households than that among the OBC households (37.3 per cent) and ‘others’ category of households (26.2 per cent). In Figure 1, the proportion of households for each household type, for rural areas, among the different social groups in India is presented.

3.2.5.1 To examine the variation in this respect among different social groups in rural India, the distribution of households by size class of land possessed, as obtained from the survey, is presented for different social groups in Statement 3.7. The distribution of households by size class of land possessed for various social groups is shown in Statement 3.7.1 for the rural areas of each state/union territory.

NSS Report No. 543: Employment and unemployment situation among social groups in India 22 Chapter Three Summary of Findings

3.2.5.2 Land possessed by different social groups: Statement 3.7 shows that in rural India, among the social groups, the proportion of households possessing land less than 0.001 hectares (including the cases of those households who had reported no information on land), during 2009-10, was the highest for Statement 3.7: Per 1000 distribution of households of different ST households (nearly 10.1 per social groups by size class of land possessed cent). The corresponding proportion all-India rural for SC households was about 8.6 per size class of land all cent, for OBC 8 per cent and others possessed ST SC OBC others (incl. category of households it was (hectares) n.r.) around 7.9 per cent.

3.2.6 Distribution of Households by Size Class of Land Cultivated

3.2.6.1 Land cultivated by different social groups: Information on land cultivated by the households during the agricultural year (AY) 2008-09, i.e., July 2008 to June 2009 was also collected through Schedule 10 of NSS 66th round. The distribution of rural households in India by size class of land cultivated is given in Statement 3.8. The corresponding distribution for different states/union territories is given in Statement 3.8.1. The statement shows that NSS Report No. 543: Employment and unemployment situation among social groups in India 23 Chapter Three Summary of Findings during the agricultural year 2008-09, about 45.4 per cent of the rural households cultivated land less than 0.001 hectare (including those households which reported no information on land cultivated). The corresponding proportions for ST, SC, OBC and others were 37.2 per cent, 58.9 per cent, 43.4 Statement 3.8: Per thousand distribution of households of different social per cent, 40.1 per cent, groups by size class of land cultivated respectively.

3.2.7 Proportion of Households with no Literate Adult Member / no Literate Adult Female Member

3.2.7.1 The activity pattern of the members of a household is likely to be related to their level of literacy. Statement 3.9 gives the proportions of households having no literate adult (age 15 years and above) member/no literate adult female member (age 15 years and above) for different social groups of households at the all-India level, separately for rural and urban areas for NSS 55th (1999-2000), 61st (2004-05) and 66th (2009-10) rounds. In the survey, a person was considered as literate if he/she could both read and write a simple message with understanding in at least one language. The statement reveals that the proportion of households without any literate adult member or without any literate adult female member was much higher among households belonging to the STs and SCs as compared to the OBC or others category households in both rural and urban India. Between the two scheduled categories, the proportion of households without any literate adult member was higher among the STs in rural India and among the SCs in urban India: in rural India nearly 28.9 per cent of ST households and 25.1 of SC households were without any literate adult member and in urban India nearly 9.7 per cent of the ST households and 12.1 per cent of SC households were without any literate adult member. Between OBC and others category of households, the proportion of such households was higher among the OBCs in both rural and urban India. In rural India, nearly 19.5 per cent of OBC households compared to 11.2 per cent of others category of households and in urban India, nearly 7.2 per cent of OBC households compared to 3.2 per cent of others category of households had no literate adult member. The proportion of households without any literate adult female member was almost same among the ST and NSS Report No. 543: Employment and unemployment situation among social groups in India 24 Chapter Three Summary of Findings

SC households in rural India (49.3 per cent among ST and 49 per cent among SC) while in urban India, the proportion of households without any literate adult female member was higher for SC (nearly 26.1 per cent) than among ST (22.7 per cent) households. In rural India, nearly, 41.8 per cent of OBC households compared to 25.9 per cent of other category of households and in urban India, nearly 18.7 per cent of OBC household compared to 8 per cent of other category of households had no literate adult female member. Statement 3.9.1 gives the proportions of households having no literate adult (age 15 years and above) member and no literate adult female member (age 15 years and above) for different social groups of households at the state/union territory level. The proportion of households (per 1000) with no literate adult member/ no literate adult female member in the household by social group is presented in Figure 4.

3.2.7.2 Changes over time: Statement 3.9 also presents the results from NSS 55th round (1999- 2000) and 61st round (2004-05). It is seen that over the period from 1999-2000 to 2009-10, the proportion of households with no literate adult member has declined across all the social groups in both rural and urban areas. The proportion of households with no literate adult female member has also declined across all the social groups during this period in both rural and urban areas. For ST, 47.6 per cent of the household in rural areas and 23.1 per cent

NSS Report No. 543: Employment and unemployment situation among social groups in India 25 Chapter Three Summary of Findings households in urban areas had no literate adult member in 1999-2000 which decreased to 28.9 per cent and 9.7 per cent respectively in 2009-10. For SC, nearly 41.3 per cent of the household in rural areas and 23.7 per cent households in urban areas had no literate adult member in 1999-2000 which decreased to 25.1 per cent and 12.1 per cent respectively in 2009-10. For OBC, nearly 32 per cent of the household in rural areas and 14 per cent households in urban areas had no literate adult member in 1999-2000 which decreased to 19.5 per cent and 7.2 per cent respectively in 2009-10. For the residual category others, nearly 19.8 per cent of the household in rural areas and 6.5 per cent households in urban areas had no literate adult member in 1999-2000 which decreased to 11.2 per cent and 3.2 per cent respectively in 2009-10.

3.2.8 Participation by rural households in MGNREG works 3.2.8.1 In NSS 66th round, in the household characteristics block of Employment & Unemployment schedule, a few questions were asked to the rural households for collection of information related to MGNREG works, such as ‘whether the household has MGNREG job card’, ‘whether got work in MGNREG works during last 365 days’, ‘number of days worked’ and ‘mode of payment of the wages earned in MGNREG works’. In this context, it may be mentioned that in the present survey, ‘household having MGNREG job card’ connoted that the name of at least one member of the household appeared on a job card. In Statement 3.10, number of households having MGNREG job card per 1000 households, average number of days worked during last 365 days in MGNREG works per household that got MGNREG works and per 1000 distribution of households by status of getting work in MGNREG works for each household social group in rural India has been presented and the corresponding state table has been presented in Statement 3.10.1. It may be noted that in Statement 3.10, the per 1000 distribution of households by status of getting work in MGNREG works for each household social group in rural India has been presented in columns 4 to 6 considering all the households irrespective of whether these households have MGNREG job card or not.

NSS Report No. 543: Employment and unemployment situation among social groups in India 26 Chapter Three Summary of Findings

3.2.8.2 As Statement 3.10 shows, the percentage of households having a MGNREG job card was highest for ST households and lowest for others households. Percentage of ST, SC, OBC and others households having MGNREG job card is estimated to be nearly 54.1, 45, 30.6 and 24, respectively. For households that worked under MGNREG programme, the average number of days worked during the last 365 days was 42, 35, 42 and 27 for ST, SC, OBC and others households respectively. Nearly 39.8 per cent of ST households got MGNREG work, the corresponding percentage for SC, OBC and others households being about 32.9, 20.9 and 15.1 per cent, respectively. As regards the incidence of households seeking but not getting MGNREG work, the percentages were about 19.7, 22.2, 18.3 and 18.1, respectively for ST, SC, OBC and others households. Finally, the percentage of households that did not seek MGNREG work was about 36.3, 42.9, 58.3 and 63.8 per cent for ST, SC, OBC and others households, respectively.

3.2.9 Literacy Rate among Persons of Age 5 Years and Above 3.2.9.1 The educational level attained by a person is expected to be associated with his or her employment prospects. Statement 3.11 presents the literacy rate at the all-India level among persons of age 5 years and above belonging to the different social groups. Similar results for each state/union territory are given in Statement 3.11.1. Number of literates per 1000 persons of age 5 years and above among different social groups in India is presented in Figure 5. It is seen that during 2009-10, about 72.8 per cent of the population (5 years and above) in the country were literate, that is, they could both read and write a simple message with understanding in at least one language. In all-India (rural + urban), the estimated literacy rate is highest (82.1 per cent) for the population belonging to others households, followed by OBC (71.6 percent), SC (65.4 per cent) and ST (63.1 per cent). The corresponding literacy rates for rural India are about 76.7 percent (others), 67.9 per cent (OBC), 62.3 per cent (SC) and 61.5 per cent (ST) and those for urban India are 90 per cent (others), 82.2 per cent (OBC), 80.4 per cent (ST) and 76.4 per cent (SC). As regards the male-female literacy rate differential, while in all the cases male literacy rate is higher, the differential varies across social group. Thus, NSS Report No. 543: Employment and unemployment situation among social groups in India 27 Chapter Three Summary of Findings for rural India, whereas the all-social group differential is about 18.8 percentage points, corresponding group-specific differentials are about 20.5 percentage points, 19.8 percentage points, 17.5 percentage points and 15.7 percentage points for OBC, SC, ST and others, respectively. For urban India, these differentials are about 11.1 percentage points (all social group), 14 percentage points (SC), 16 percentage points (ST), 13.3 percentage points (OBC) and 7.5 percentage points (others), respectively.

3.2.10.2 A comparison of social group-wise estimated illiteracy rates (proportion of illiterates in the population) given in Statement 3.12 and the corresponding estimates implied by Statement 3.11 suggest that in all cases (i.e., for all social groups and rural and urban India) the illiteracy rate for male/female/persons of age 15 years and above is higher than that for those of age 5 years and above – an indication perhaps of the growing literacy in the Indian society over years. As regards the percentage of population reporting graduate and above education level, it is higher for others compared to other social groups for male and female population of rural and urban India alike. One noticeable feature is the following: whereas for

NSS Report No. 543: Employment and unemployment situation among social groups in India 30 Chapter Three Summary of Findings

3.2.11.1 Current attendance rate in educational institutions is an important indicator of progress of any social group. For the present survey, current attendance rate is defined to be the number of persons currently attending educational institution per 1000 persons of a given population. Statement 3.13 gives the estimated current attendance rate for 5-14, 15-19 and 20- 24 age group by social group separately for male and female and rural and urban India. To facilitate temporal comparison, estimates for NSS 55th (1999-2000) and 61st (2004-05) rounds are also presented alongside the estimates for 66th round. This statement shows that for rural India for male and female alike, current attendance rates for 5-14 age group for ST are lowest, followed by those for SC, OBC and others. For urban India for male, current attendance rate for 5-14 age group for ST is lowest, followed by those for SC, OBC and others, while for female, current attendance rate was lowest for ST, highest for others and was at the same level for both SC and OBC. For 15-19 age group also, current attendance rate was lowest for ST followed by SC, OBC and others in rural India while in urban India, it was lowest for SC, followed by OBC, ST and others. The corresponding rates in rural India for 20-24 age group was lowest and at the same level for SC and ST, followed by OBC and others. In urban India, on the other hand, for 20-24 age group, current attendance rate for ST exceed those for SC and OBC (perceptibly so for urban male for which this rate is highest among all social groups) and are next to others. As regards the gender differential in attendance rate, it may be observed that for rural and urban India alike such differential is there for the higher age groups, viz., 15-19 and 20-24 years. Finally, temporal comparison of attendance rates suggests a general rise in attendance rate across board. Statement 3.13.1 presents the current attendance rates in educational institutions for different social groups at the state/union territory.

3.3 Labour force, Employed and Unemployed

3.3.1 General: From the data collected through the quinquennial surveys on employment- unemployment, four different estimates of the employment-unemployment indicators can be generated based on the three approaches adopted for classification of persons by activity statuses. These are:

(i) number of persons employed/ unemployed or in the labour force according to the usual status (ps) i.e. by considering usual principal activity only, (ii) number of persons employed/ unemployed or in the labour force according to the usual status (ps+ss) i.e. by considering usual principal and subsidiary activity together, (iii) number of persons employed/ unemployed or in the labour force according to the current weekly status approach, and (iv) number of person-days employed/ unemployed or in the labour force according to the current daily status approach For the purpose of this report, estimates of the employment-unemployment indicators for various social groups have been generated with respect to the usual status (ps+ss) where the activity status of a person for a long reference period of 365 days preceding the date of survey has been determined on the basis of the usual principal activity and usual subsidiary economic activity of the person taken together.

3.3.2 Labour Force

3.3.2.1 Labour force, or, in other words, the ‘economically active’ persons refers to the population which supplies or seeks to supply labour for production of goods and services and therefore, includes both the ‘employed’ and the ‘unemployed’. The labour force participation rate (LFPR), i.e. the number of persons in the labour force per 1000 persons, presented in Statement 3.14 for all-India, has been measured according to the usual status considering both the principal and the subsidiary statuses. The estimates of LFPR for each state/union territory by social group are also presented in Statement 3.14.1.

3.3.2.2 Statement 3.14 shows LFPR according to usual status (ps+ss) was 41.4 per cent in rural areas and 36.2 per cent in urban areas. It shows that in India, LFPR was the highest among the STs (46 per cent), followed by the SCs (41.2 per cent), OBCs (40 per cent) and lowest for others (37.5 per cent). In the rural areas, LFPR was the highest for STs (46.8 per cent), followed by SCs (41.9 per cent), OBCs (41.2 per cent) and lowest for others (39.1) per cent. In the urban areas, LFPR was the highest for SCs (38.5 per cent), followed by STs (37.8 per cent), OBCs (36.6 per cent) and lowest among others (35 per cent). The male-female differences in LFPR are seen to be quite prominent in all the categories of social groups with male LFPR much higher than female LFPR. In the rural areas, male LFPR was the highest among STs, nearly 56.9 per cent followed by others (56.3 per cent each), SCs (55.8 per cent) and OBCs (54.8 per cent). Among rural female, the LFPR was the highest among STs (36.2 per cent) followed by SCs (27.3 per cent), OBCs (27.1 per cent) and others (20.4 per cent). In the urban areas, male LFPR was the highest among SCs (56.7 per cent) followed by OBCs (55.9 per cent), others (55.8 per cent) and STs (53.4 per cent). Among the urban females, LFPR was the highest among STs (21.2 per cent), followed by SCs (18.6 per cent), OBCs (15.5 per cent) and others (12.1 per cent). The LFPR for different social groups is presented in Figure 6.

3.3.3 Worker Population Ratios (WPRs) of Various Social Groups

3.3.3.1 The work force according to the usual status (ps+ss) includes persons who (a) either worked for a relatively long part of the 365 days preceding the date of survey and (b) also those persons from among the remaining population who had worked at least for 30 days during the reference period of 365 days preceding the date of survey. The number of persons employed per 1000 persons is referred to as work-force participation rate (WFPR) or worker population ratio (WPR). The WPRs for different social groups at the all-India level are presented in Statement 3.15. The WPR for different social groups is given in Figure 7.

3.3.3.2 Statement 3.15 shows that according to usual status (ps+ss) in rural areas, WPR was 40.8 per cent and it was 35 per cent in urban areas. It shows that in rural India, WPR according to usual status (ps+ss) approach was the highest among the males and females belonging to the STs (55.9 per cent among males and 35.9 per cent among females). Among the remaining social groups, WPRs were as follows: among males, it was 54.8 per cent for SCs, 54 per cent for OBCs and 55.2 per cent for others while for females it was 26.9 per cent for SCs, 26.7 per cent for OBCs and 19.9 per cent for others. In urban India, among males, WPR according to usual status (ps+ss) approach was the highest among SCs (55 per cent), followed by OBCs and others (54.3 per cent and 54.2 per cent respectively) while WPR was the lowest for STs (51 per cent). Among females in urban India, WPR was the highest among STs (20.3 per cent), followed by SCs (17.8 per cent), OBCs (14.5 per cent) and lowest for others (11.3 per cent). The estimates of the WPRs at the state/union territory are presented in Statement 3.14.1. The RSEs of worker population ratio (WPR) according to usual status (ps+ss) for all-India and each of the major States are given in Statement 3.21 at the end of this Chapter.

3.3.4 Worker Population Ratios (WPRs) of Various Social Groups over the NSS Rounds

3.3.4.1 The WPRs according to usual status (ps+ss) for different social groups over the period 1983 to 2009-10 have been presented in Statement 3.16. The survey periods for which the WPRs have been presented in this Statement refer to those of NSS 38th (1983), 43rd (1987- 88), 50th (1993-94), 55th (1999-2000), NSS 61st (2004-05) and NSS 66th (2009-10) rounds. It may be noted that the estimates for others category included OBCs in the 38th, 43rd and 50th rounds, since in those surveys, OBC was not a separate social group. It is seen that for rural male ST category, WPR hovered around 56 per cent during 1999-2000 to 2009-10 (55.8 per cent during 1999-2000, 56.2 per cent during 2004-05 and 55.9 per cent during 2009-10) while during the period earlier to 1999-2000, it was around 57 to 59 per cent (59.1 per cent during 1993-94, 56.7 per cent during 1987-88 and 58.8 per cent during 1983). For rural male SC category, WPR hovered around 55 per cent in all the time periods except during 1999-2000 (53.1 per cent) and 1987-88 (53.8 per cent). For rural male OBC category, WPR was nearly 53.7 per cent during 2004-05 and 54 per cent during 2009-10, while it was around 53.2 per cent during 1999-2000. For rural male belonging to the household social group others, WPR was the lowest during 1999-2000 (52 per cent) and highest during 2004-05 (55.7 per cent), while in 2009-10 it was nearly 55.2 per cent. For the rural females, across all the social groups, WPR was the lowest in 2009-10 compared to the other time periods: in 2009-10 WPR was 35.9 per cent for ST, 26.9 per cent for SC, 26.7 per cent for OBC and nearly 19.9 per cent

NSS Report No. 543: Employment and unemployment situation among social groups in India 34 Chapter Three Summary of Findings for others. Among urban males, WPR was nearly 51 per cent in 2009-10 compared to 52.3 per cent in 2004-05 for ST, 55 per cent in 2009-10 compared to 53.7 per cent in 2004-05 among SCs, 54.3 per cent in 2009-10 compared to 55.4 per cent in 2004-05 among OBCs and 54.2 per cent in 2009-10 compared to 55 per cent in 2004-05 for others. For urban females, WPRs showed a decline in 2009-10 compared to 2004-05 across all the social groups: the decline was from 24.5 per cent to 20.3 per cent for ST, from 20 per cent to 17.8 per cent for SC, from 18.5 per cent to 14.5 per cent for OBC and from 13.4 per cent to 11.3 per cent for others.

3.3.5.1 The WPRs for different levels of general educations among persons of age 15 years and above belonging to different social groups are presented in Statement 3.17 at the all-India NSS Report No. 543: Employment and unemployment situation among social groups in India 36 Chapter Three Summary of Findings level. It is seen from Statement 3.17 that WPR for rural males was higher for persons of age 15 years and above belonging to STs (85.1 per cent) and SCs (82.7 per cent) than that for OBCs (81.1 per cent) and others (78.6 per cent). The same feature is observed for the not literate rural males: WPR was 92.5 per cent for ST, 89.4 per cent for SC, 86.5 per cent for OBC and 82.3 per cent for others. However, among the educated (i.e., persons with general educational level secondary and above) rural males, WPR for others was the highest (71.4 per cent ) followed by ST (70 per cent each), OBC (69.6 per cent) and SC (64.7 per cent). The rural female WPRs among the different social groups followed the same pattern as that of their male counterparts in rural areas: rural female WPR was the highest for ST (52.5 per cent) followed by SC (39.6 per cent), OBC (38.3 per cent) and others (27.1 per cent). Among the not literate rural females, WPR was the highest for ST, nearly 58.8 per cent and lowest for others, nearly 31.1 per cent while among the educated, WPR was the highest among ST (32.5 per cent) and lowest among others (20.5 per cent). In the urban areas, male WPR was the highest among SCs (76.6 per cent) and lowest among STs (69.9 per cent). Among the not literate urban males, WPR was the highest among SCs (84.6 per cent) and lowest among others (77.4 per cent), while among the educated urban males, WPR was the highest among others (70 per cent) and lowest among STs (61.1 per cent). Among urban females, WPR was the highest among STs (27.4 per cent) and lowest among others (14.6 per cent). The WPR among urban female not literates was the highest among STs (41.9 per cent) and lowest among others (14.9 per cent), while among the educated, it was the highest among SCs (18.7 per cent) and lowest among OBCs (15.2 per cent).

3.3.7 Proportion of Unemployed (PU) and Unemployment Rates (UR) of Various Social Groups

3.3.7.1 General: As stated in para 3.3.1, for the purpose of this report, the estimates of the unemployed for various social groups have been generated with respect to the usual status (ps+ss). The estimate of unemployed according to the usual status (ps) gives the number of persons who sought or was available for work for a relatively long period during a reference period of 365 days and approximates to an indicator of the chronically unemployed. However, some of these unemployed might be working in a subsidiary capacity. The estimate of unemployed according to the usual status (ps+ss) gives the number of persons who remained unemployed for a relatively long period during a reference period of 365 days excluding those employed in a subsidiary capacity during the reference period. The former is called the usually unemployed according to the principal status (ps) and the latter, the usually unemployed excluding employed in subsidiary status or usual status adjusted i.e., us (adjusted), which would conceptually be lower than the former. The estimates of proportion of unemployed (PU), i.e. number of persons unemployed per thousand persons and unemployment rates (UR) i.e. number of persons unemployed per thousand persons in the labour force, according to the usual status (ps+ss) are presented in the Statement 3.19 for different social groups at the all-India level. The estimates of proportion of unemployed (PU) for the states and union territories are presented in Statement 3.14.1 at the end of this chapter. Figure 8 gives the unemployment rate (number of unemployed per 1000 persons in the labour force) for different social group in India.

3.3.7.2 It may be seen from Statement 3.19 that proportion of unemployed (PU) during 2009- 10 was higher in the urban areas than in the rural areas of the country for both males and females belonging to the different social groups.

3.3.7.3 In rural areas: In rural India, among males, the proportion unemployed was nearly 1 per cent for each of the ST and SC while for others category of persons it was 1.1 per cent and for OBC category, it was 0.7 per cent. The unemployment rate for males was nearly 1.7 per cent for each of the ST and SC while for others category of persons it was 2 per cent and for OBC category, it was nearly 1.4 per cent. For rural females, the proportion of unemployed was less than 1 per cent for each of the social groups (0.3 per cent for ST, 0.4 per cent for each of SC and OBC and 0.5 per cent for others). For rural females, unemployment rate was the highest, nearly 2.5 per cent for others category while it was the lowest for ST category, nearly 0.9 per cent.

3.3.7.4 In urban areas: Among the urban males, the proportion of unemployed was nearly 2.4 per cent for ST, 1.7 per cent for SC, 1.5 per cent for each of OBC and others. Unemployment rate among the males was the highest for ST (nearly 4.4 per cent), 3.1 per cent for SC, 2.8 per cent for OBC and 2.7 per cent for others category. Among females, proportion unemployed was nearly 0.9 per cent among ST, 0.8 per cent for SC, 1 per cent for OBC and 0.7 per cent among others. The female, unemployment rate was the highest for both OBC and others (6.2 per cent each) while it was nearly 4.3 per cent for of ST and 4.2 per cent for SCs.

3.3.8 Proportion of Unemployed (PU) and Unemployment Rates (UR) of Various Social Groups over the NSS Rounds

3.3.8.1 The estimates of proportion unemployed (PU) in total population and unemployment rates (number of unemployed per 1000 persons in the labour force) according to the usual status (ps+ss) for the 38th (1983), 43rd (1987-88), 50th (1993-94), 55th (1999-2000), 61st (2004 - 05) and 66th (2009-10) rounds are presented in the Statement 3.19 for different social groups at the all-India level. It is seen that for rural male ST, the UR increased from 1.1 per cent in 2004-05 to nearly 1.7 per cent in 2009-10, while for the remaining social groups the UR among rural males did not change over this period: during these two periods, for SC it was nearly 1.7 per cent, for OBC it was nearly 1.5 to 1.4 per cent and for others category it was nearly 2 per cent. Over the period from 2004-05 to 2009-10, the rural female UR has shown an increase for ST (from 0.4 per cent in 2004-05 to nearly 0.9 per cent in 2009-10), while for the remaining social groups, UR has generally remained at the same level or decreased during these two periods: for SC the UR was nearly 1.4 to 1.5 per cent during these two periods, for OBC it decreased from 1.9 per cent in 2004-05 to 1.4 per cent in 2009-10 and for others category the UR decreased from 2.9 per cent to 2.5 per cent during these two periods. For urban males, the UR for ST increased from 2.9 per cent in 2004-05 to 4.4 per cent during 2009-10, for SC it has decreased from 5.5 per cent in 2004-05 to 3.1 per cent in 2009-10, for OBC the UR decreased from nearly at 3.3 per cent to 2.8 per cent during and for others category, the UR decreased from 3.7 per cent for 2.7 per cent during 2004-05 and 2009-10. The UR for the urban females has also shown the same pattern as those of urban males: the UR for ST females in urban areas has increased from 3.4 per cent to 4.3 per cent during 2004- 05 to 2009-10, for SC the UR decreased from 4.6 per cent to 4.2 per cent during this period, for OBC the UR decreased from 6.7 per cent to 6.2 per cent while for others category, the decrease in UR was from 8.5 per cent to 6.2 per cent during 2004-05 and 2009-10.

3.3.9 Unemployment Rate (URs) Among Persons of Age 15 years and above for Different Levels of General Education 3.3.9.1 The URs for different levels of general educations among persons of age 15 years and above belonging to different social groups are presented in Statement 3.20 at the all-India level.

Sample Design and Estimation Procedure

1. Introduction

1.1 The 66th round (July 2009-June 2010) of NSS was earmarked for survey on ‘Household Consumer Expenditure’ and ‘Employment and Unemployment’. The survey covered the whole of the Indian Union except (i) interior villages of Nagaland situated beyond five kilometres of the bus route and (ii) villages in Andaman and Nicobar Islands which remain inaccessible throughout the year. All the sample first stage units of both rural and urban areas of Leh, Kargil and Poonch districts of Jammu & Kashmir became casualty and therefore these districts were outside the survey coverage. In addition to these, all the sample first stage units of the following areas were casualty in different sub- rounds: (i) in sub-rounds 1, 2, and 4, both rural and urban areas of Rajouri district of Jammu & Kashmir, (ii) in sub-round 2, urban areas of Lakhisarai district of Bihar, (iii) in sub-round 3, rural areas of Doda district of Jammu & Kashmir. The estimates of the different sub-rounds, therefore, excluded these areas. The period of survey was of one year duration starting on 1st July 2009 and ending on 30th June 2010. The survey period of this round was divided into four sub-rounds of three months’ duration each, the 1st sub-round period ranging from July to September 2009, the 2nd sub-round period from October to December 2009 and so on. In each of these four sub-rounds equal number of sample villages/ blocks (FSUs) were allotted for survey with a view to ensuring uniform spread of sample FSUs over the entire survey period.

2 Sample Design

2.1 A stratified multi-stage design was adopted for the 66th round survey. The first stage units (FSU) were the 2001 census villages (Panchayat wards in case of Kerala) in the rural sector and Urban Frame Survey (UFS) blocks in the urban sector. In addition, two non-UFS towns of Leh and Kargil of Jammu & Kashmir were also treated as FSUs in the urban sector. The ultimate stage units (USU) were households in both the sectors. Hamlet-groups/sub-blocks constituted the intermediate stage whenever these were formed in the sample FSUs. 2.2 Selection of the first-stage units: The various steps involved before making the selection of the FSUs are discussed at length in the following few paragraphs before taking up the issue of selection of USUs within FSUs. 2.2.1 Sampling Frame for First Stage Units: For the rural sector, the list of 2001 census villages (Panchayat wards in case of Kerala) constituted the sampling frame. For the urban sector, the list of latest available UFS blocks constituted the sampling frame. For non-UFS towns, frame consisted of the individual towns (only two towns, viz., Leh & Kargil constituted this frame).

B–1 Sample Design and Estimation Procedure

2.2.2 Stratification of the first stage units: Within each district of a State/ UT, two basic strata were formed as follows: i) rural stratum comprising of all rural areas of the district and (ii) urban stratum comprising of all the urban areas of the district. However, within the urban areas of a district, if there were one or more towns with population 10 lakhs or more as per population census 2001 in a district, each of them formed a separate basic stratum and the remaining urban areas of the district were considered as another basic stratum. 2.2.3 Sub-stratification: There was no sub-stratification in the urban sector. However, to net adequate number of child workers, for all rural strata, each stratum was divided into 2 sub-strata as follows: sub-stratum 1: all villages with proportion of child workers (p) >2P (where P is the average proportion of child workers for the sate/ UT as per Census 2001) sub-stratum 2: remaining villages 2.2.4 Allocation of FSU’s among Strata: At the all-India level, a total number of 12784 FSUs were allocated for survey in the central sample. In addition, 24 State sample FSUs (16 for rural sector and 8 for urban sector) of Leh and Kargil districts of J & K were included in the central sample. The total number of sample FSUs was allocated to the States and UTs in proportion to population as per census 2001 subject to the availability of investigators and ensuring minimum sample allocation to each State/ UT. The State/ UT level sample size was allocated between two sectors in proportion to population as per census 2001 with double weightage to urban sector subject to the restriction that urban sample size for bigger states like Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, etc. did not exceed the rural sample size. A minimum of 16 FSUs (to the extent possible) was allocated to each state/ UT separately for rural and urban areas. Further the State level allocations for both rural and urban areas were adjusted marginally in a few cases to ensure that each stratum/ sub-stratum got a minimum allocation of 4 FSUs. Within each sector of a State/ UT, the respective sample size was allocated to the different strata/ sub-strata in proportion to the population as per census 2001. Allocations at stratum/ sub-stratum level were adjusted to multiples of 4 with a minimum sample size of 4 and equal number of samples was allocated among the four sub rounds. 2.2.5 Selection of first-stage units: For the rural sector, from each stratum/ sub-stratum, required number of sample villages were selected by probability proportional to size with replacement (PPSWR), size being the population of the village as per Census 2001. For urban sector, from each stratum FSUs were selected by using Simple Random Sampling Without Replacement (SRSWOR). Both rural and urban samples were drawn in the form of two independent sub-samples. 2.3 Selection of Ultimate Stage Units (USU) within a FSU: The remaining paragraphs of this sub-section outlines the various steps leading to the actual selection of USUs within a FSU.

B–2 Sample Design and Estimation Procedure

2.3.1 Selection of hamlet-groups/sub-blocks: Selected FSUs with approximate population 1200 or more were divided into a suitable number (say, D) of ‘hamlet-groups’ in the rural sector and ‘sub-blocks’ in the urban sector as stated below. approximate present population no. of hgs/sbs of the sample FSU to be formed less than 1200 (no hamlet-groups/sub-blocks) 1 1200 to 1799 3 1800 to 2399 4 2400 to 2999 5 3000 to 3599 6 …………..and so on For rural areas of Himachal Pradesh, Sikkim, Uttarakhand (except four districts Dehradun (Plains), Nainital (Plains), Hardwar and Udham Singh Nagar), Poonch, Rajouri, Udhampur, Doda, Leh (Ladakh), Kargil districts of Jammu and Kashmir and Idukki district of Kerala, the number of hamlet-groups were formed as follows: approximate present population no. of hgs to of the sample village be formed less than 600 (no hamlet-groups) 1 600 to 899 3 900 to 1199 4 1200 to 1499 5 .………..and so on

Hamlet-groups/ sub-blocks were formed in the sample FSU by more or less equalising populations. Two hamlet-groups (hg)/ sub-blocks (sb) were selected from a large FSU, wherever hamlet-groups/ sub-blocks were formed. This was done in the following manner – one hg/ sb with maximum percentage share of population was always selected and termed as hg/ sb 1; one more hg/ sb was selected from the remaining hg’s/ sb’s by simple random sampling (SRS) and termed as hg/ sb 2. Listing and selection of the households was done independently in the two selected hamlet-groups/ sub-blocks. The FSUs without hg/ sb formation were treated as sample hg/ sb number 1. 2.3.2 Sampling frame of households: All households listed in a village/UFS block where no hamlet-group/sub-block formation was done, or the households listed in the two selected hamlet-groups/sub-blocks of the village/UFS block where hamlet-group/sub- block formation was done, constituted the sampling frame of households. 2.3.3 Stratification of rural households: For employment and un-employment survey of NSS 66th round, all households listed in the selected FSU/hamlet group/sub-blocks were stratified into three second stage strata (SSS). The three second-stage-strata (SSS) formed in the rural areas were:

B–3 Sample Design and Estimation Procedure

Rural number of households to be surveyed FSU with hg/sb SSS FSU without formation (for hg/sb formation composition of SSS each hg/sb) SSS 1: relatively affluent households 2 1 SSS 2: of the remaining, households having principal 4 2 earning from non- agricultural activity SSS 3: other households 2 1 Identification of affluent households was done by taking into account factors generally associated with affluent households such as: ownership of motor car/ jeep/ tractor/ combine-harvester/ truck/ bus/ etc.; consumer durables like DVD/ VCP/ refrigerator/ washing machine etc.; ownership of large business/ highly remunerative profession/ high salaried income etc.; ownership of spacious pucca house in good condition; ownership of 7 hectares or more of cultivable land; ownership of 3.5 hectares or more of irrigated land; ownership of a good number of cattle, buffaloes and camels (10 or more in number). 2.3.4 Stratification of urban households: Three second stage strata (SSS) were formed in the urban areas as follows: Urban number of households to be surveyed FSU with hg/sb SSS FSU without formation (for each hg/sb formation composition of SSS hg/sb) SSS 1: households having MPCE of top 10% of 2 1 urban population (MPCE > B) SSS 2: households having MPCE of middle 60% 4 2 of urban population (A ≤ MPCE ≤ B) households having MPCE of bottom 30% SSS 3: 2 1 of urban population (MPCE  A) The cut-off points ‘A’ and ‘B’ (in Rs.) were determined from NSS 61st round data for each NSS region for urban areas in such a way that top 10% of the population have MPCE more than ‘B’ and bottom 30% of the population have MPCE less than A. 2.3.5 Selection of households: For employment-unemployment survey a total of 8 households were selected from each village/FSU. In both rural and urban areas, in case no hamlet-group/sub-block formation was done in the village/block, a number of 2, 4 and 2 households were selected from the second stage strata SSS1, SSS2 and SSS3, respectively. In case hamlet-groups/sub-blocks were formed in the village/block, a number of 1, 2 and 1 households were selected respectively from the second stage strata SSS1, SSS2 and SSS3 of each of the hamlet-groups/sub-blocks. The sample households from each of the second stage strata were selected by SRSWOR. 2.4 Number of village/blocks allotted for survey in the NSS 66th round along with the number of village/blocks actually surveyed and number of persons enumerated in respect of employment and unemployment survey are given for different states and union territories in Table 1 at the end of Appendix-B.
