Why do some states of India have higher rates of work participation than others?
Advertisements
उत्तर
The work participation rate is the number of people engaged in economic activities. Some states of India like Himachal Pradesh, Sikkim, Chhattisgarh, Andhra Pradesh, etc. tend to have higher work participation rates. The work participation rate tends to be higher in the areas of lower levels of economic development since the number of manual workers is needed to perform the subsistence or near subsistence economic activities in the absence of other opportunities.
