ANNUAL EMPLOYMENT REVIEW - 2015-2016.
CHAPTER – I
HIGHLIGHTS.
1.1.The present Employment Review is the 48TH issue in the series of Annual Employment Reviews being published by the Directorate of Employment and Training, Bangalore, Karnataka. It pertains to the year ended 31st March, 2016. This Review is based on the information collected by the net-work of Employment Exchanges in the State under the Employment Market Information Programme.
The Employment Market Information programme relates to the ‘Organised Sector’ of the economy which covers all establishments in the public sector, irrespective of their size and non-agricultural establishments in the private sector employing 10 or more persons. Accordingly, information in respect of all the public sector establishments and non-agricultural establishments in the private sector employing 25 or more workers is collected statutorily under the provisions of Employment Exchanges (Compulsory Notification of Vacancies) Act 1959, whereas information from smaller non-agricultural establishments in the private sector employing 10 – 24 persons is collected on voluntary basis.
Frame of Establishments:-
1.2There were 23,676 establishments on the Employers’ Register maintained in the Employment Exchanges of Karnataka, at the end of March, 2016. Of these, 14,757establishments come under Public sector and 8,919 establishments come under private sector.
Employment Growth in the organised sector:-
1.3.The total employment in the Organised Sector has increased from 2384.2thousands as on 31st March, 2015to 2385.6 thousands as on 31st March, 2016.
Employment in Different Industry Division:-
1.4. Divisions“Electricity, Gas ,Steam and Air Conditioning Supply, Construction,Wholesale & Retail Trade, Transportation& storage, Accommodation and food service activities, Information and Communicatin” have recorded increase in employment.

1.6 The number of job-seekers on the Live Registers of Employment Exchanges in the State
decreased from 353.94 thousands as on 31st March,2015 to 341.31 thousands as on
31st March,2016.
Employment Opportunities:-
1.7.Employment opportunities indicated upward trend as the number of vacancies notified to the Employment Exchanges increased during the year under review. The total number of vacancies notified increased from 1827at the end of March, 2015 to 2059as at the end of March,2016. But the number of vacancies notified to the Employment Exchanges alone cannot be taken as an indication of employment generation, since many types of vacancies arising in the Organised Sector are exempted from notification under the provisions of Employment Exchanges (Compulsory Notification of Vacancies) Act, 1959.
Employment Scenario:-
1.8.Totally 5,101 persons were placed on jobs during the year under review as against 5,131 persons the previous year . There were 3.41 lakhs candidates waiting on the Live Registers of Employment Exchanges seeking employment assistance. Therefore, the statistics relating to the number of jobs available vis-a-vis availability of manpower as revealed by the Employment Exchange activities may not be a correct indicator of employment and unemployment in the State due to certain limitations.

CHAPTER-V
LABOUR MARKET
Generally, Labour Market is termed as an area where workers in search of employment and employers in need of workers come in contact with each other or meet. The proper appraisal of the Labour Market envisages a regular study of the various economic, social, institutional and cultural factors such as quantum and composition of labour force, level of education, training and skills, behavioural aspect of job seekers and employers, mobility, recruitment practices, prevailing wage levels, traditions and institutional barriers etc.
In this chapter an attempt has been made to place together the data flowing from day-to-day operation of employment exchanges relating to work seekers, vacancies notified, number of persons employed etc., all these taken together have a close bearing on the Labour Market situation prevailing in the State.
The Employment Exchange statistics provide only a broad indication of the unemployment situation in the Organised Labour Market. Before drawing any conclusion, the following limitations of the Employment Exchange statistics as indicators of unemployment in the State must be kept in mind.
1) All the persons registered with the employment exchanges are not necessarily unemployed. Quite a number of them are already in employment but have registered their names for better/more suitable jobs.
2) Registration being voluntary, all those unemployed do not register themselves with the employment exchanges for various reasons.
WORK SEEKERS:-
5.1.The number of work seekers on the Live Register of Employment Exchanges in the State has come down from 353.94 thousands as on 31st March, 2015 to 341.31thousands as on 31st March,2016.
VACANCIES NOTIFIED:-
5.2.The total number of vacancies notified to the Employment Exchanges in the State increased from 1827 as on 31st March, 2015 to 2059 as on 31st March,2016
VACANCIES FILLED:-
5.3.The number of vacancies filled through the Employment Exchanges during the year was 5,101 as against 5,131 filled during the previous year.
CHAPTER-VI.
6.1.EMPLOYMENT OUTLOOK:-
It flows from the above data that employment in the Organised Sector has increased during the year under review. The placement activity in the Employment Exchanges has decreased. The number of job seekers entering the employment market when compared to previous year, has decreased. Among other factors, spread of general education, slow pace of employment generation, continuous growth of population etc., might have contributed for the above situation. As employment generation particularly in the organised sector depends on various factors, the process of creating salaried jobs is rather low. Therefore, the educated unemployed have to find avenues in the un-organised sector and in self-employment rather than waiting indefinitely for openings in the Organised Sector.
