Of the total labour force of 475 million in India nearly 92% is in informal employment in the unorganized sector (agriculture, building and construction, textiles, retail trade, logistics and transportation) with very low levels of education. India has just a 2% trained workforce as compared to Germany (75%), UK (68%), and South Korea (96%). There are approximately 15 million new entrants into the workforce in India every year; however the net enrolment in vocational education is only 3.5 million per year, as compared to 11 million in China and 11.3 million in USA. A large portion of the informal workforce is not engaged in what the ILO calls ‘Decent Work’, but finds work in exploitative and vulnerable conditions as they find employment through informal means such as word-of-mouth references, contractors, and the like. In the absence of any bargaining power, basic freedom and mainstreaming opportunities, the vicious cycle of poverty and disadvantage gets compounded through low levels of skills.

The National Skill Development Policy has an ambitious plan to skill about 12-15 million youth each year. About 17 ministries of the Indian Government are currently engaged in undertaking various skill development initiatives, with a combined target of imparting skills to 350 million people by 2022. Despite such lofty goals set up by GOI there has been very slow progress in achieving the target of skill development so far. Against a low target of skilling 8.5 million persons during 2012-13, only about 1.4 million persons could be trained in 2014-15 by various Ministries/ NSDC. Further, many teachers/ instructors are ill-equipped to handle the demands of the industry including updated knowledge, new technology and awareness of changing market

As the world developing, the advancements in technology has become a heated topic. While the majority of labor union members believe it is immoral to have hi-tech machines do the jobs of human workers, the other majority of non-union workers opposed this idea. It has been said: "Majority ignorance is as common as majority wisdom" (Ruggiero, 2015, p. 23). Therefore, majority view should not be used as a measurement of morality in this instance, or in any other cases. For this case, what the development of the advanced technology does is not just to eliminate old jobs and also creates new jobs.

Abstract The global garment industry, worth more than $400 billion dollars today, is a very lucrative industry. Garment factories in developing countries working for retailers in developed ones shows how efficiency is increased and every party can benefit through outsourcing of labour from developed countries; retailers and consumers get clothes at cheaper prices while employment is provided to areas plagued with poverty. However, it is evident that many of these garment factories are sweatshops, which are factories and businesses that violates local or international labour laws, such as providing workers with atrocious working conditions, providing minimal compensation or even employing child labour. Like it or not, many of our clothes does not come ethically and they have probably encouraged labour exploitation in one way or another.
From Murray’s claim, I do agree that there has become a rising demand for skilled workers. On the other hand, I feel that training and vocational schools do not give as much flexibility in learning other majors as it narrowly focuses on the degree with no general education

Pros #1 Child labor is very important towards poor families who need extra help bringing food and money in the house. Most children under the age of ten start working in order to help bring in a decent amount of money in order to help their parents and siblings survive. Children are not incompetent; most realize when their parents are struggling to make ends meat, they try to help out as much as they can and most decided that, even though they are young, they have to start doing more therefore most decide to start working. The jobs they receive often don’t pay much so in order to have higher pay most children work for hours on end in order to bring in more money especially if they come from extremely poor families. “Victor chapani started working when he was 10- a few hours a day- rounding up passengers minibuses in his impoverished city of El Alto, Bolivia... earning less than a dollar an hour… “United,” he says, sounding like a seasoned adult laborite, “we as child workers can achieve anything.”
DISCUSSION ABOUT MARGINALIZED WOMEN ISSUES DR.C.SUBBULAKSHMI Assistant Professor Centre for Women’s Studies Madurai Kamaraj university e-mail id: magarisha@gmail.com Marginalization is the social process by which a person or a group of people are made marginal or become relegated to the fringe or edge of society. It occurs when people is pushed to the edge of a society, usually as an effect of discrimination making the person standout and look different from everybody else. They consequently feel alone and left out from the rest of society.
The subject of sweatshop and child labor is one of great controversy. The first thought to mind when speaking of sweatshops is probably a vision of sketchy factories in far off Third World countries such as Bangladesh or China working their employees 15+ hours a day in cramped up in a dust-filled space for little wages. Not in America though, right? Most Americans would be horribly upset if they found out they had been unknowingly supporting a business that uses sweatshops to produce its merchandise. Odds are though, businesses that exploit such labor are being supported in every shopping trip a person takes whether it be shopping for groceries, clothes, jewelry, or athletic gear.

The term labour relations, refers to the system in which employers, employees and their representatives (management) and, the government who all interact and work together directly and indirectly to set the ground rules for working relationships inside and organization. labour relations has its roots stemming from the industrial revolution, where we saw the emergence of trade unions to represent workers and their rights.

The education system produces skills that are not valued by employers, while raising the expectations of those who acquire them. Consequently, the unemployed do not take up existing job vacancies, and employers are unwilling to hire available candidates (Njonjo, 2010). The mismatch is more marked for school leavers and graduates who have just finished school, partly providing an explanation for the high unemployment rate among youth and new entrants into the job market. The suggested remedy is to reform the education system and increase focus on technical education and vocational training, matching them to the needs of the job market (Coenjaerts et al. 2009).
