## ANSWER

## MINISTER OF STATE FOR LABOUR AND EMPLOYMENT (SUSHRI SHOBHA KARANDLAJE)

(a) to (f): The official data source on Employment and Unemployment is Periodic Labour Force Survey (PLFS) which is conducted by the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MoSPI) since 2017-18. The survey period is July to June every year.

As  per  the  latest  available  Annual  PLFS  reports,  the  estimated Labour  Force  Participation  Rate  (LFPR)  on  usual  status  for  females  of age  15  years  and  above  increased  from  23.3%  in  2017-18  to  32.8%  in 2021-22 and further to 41.7% in 2023-24.

Also, as per the data available in latest Annual PLFS Reports, the estimated  Worker  Population  Ratio  (WPR)  indicating  employment  on usual status for women of age 15 years and above increased from 22.0% in 2017-18 to 40.3% in 2023-24.

Employment generation coupled with improving employability is the priority of the Government. Government is implementing various schemes to boost the female Labour Force Participation Rate (LFPR) as well  as  the  overall    LFPR    like  Pradhan  Mantri  Mudra  Yojana  (PMMY), StandUP  India  Scheme,  Startup  India,  Prime  Minister's  Employment Generation  Programme  (PMEGP),  Women  in  Science  and  EngineeringKIRAN (WISE-KIRAN), SERB-POWER (Promoting Opportunities for Women in Exploratory Research), Mission Shakti, Namo Drone Didi and Lakhpati Didi,  Mahatma  Gandhi  National  Rural  Employment  Guarantee  Scheme (MGNREGS),  Pt.  Deen  Dayal  Upadhyaya  Grameen  Kaushalya  Yojana (DDU-GKY),  Rural  Self  Employment  and  Training  Institutes  (RSETIs), Deen Dayal Antodaya Yojana-National Urban Livelihoods Mission (DAYNULM),  Production  Linked  Incentive, etc. The  details of various employment generation schemes/ programmes being implemented by the Government of India may be seen at https://dge.gov.in/dge/schemes\_programmes.

The  details  of  the  beneficiaries  and  funds  utilised  under  such schemes over the last five years in the country, including Maharashtra is at Annexure-I to VI.

To enhance the employability of female workers, the Government is also providing training to them through a network of Women Industrial Training institutes, National Vocational Training Institutes and Regional Vocational Training Institutes.

A number of provisions have also been incorporated in the labour laws for congenial work environment for women workers, such as paid maternity leave, child care leave, equal wages etc.

All these initiatives are expected to collectively generate employment in the medium to long term through multiplier effects.

In  addition,  Ministry  of  Labour  and  Employment  in  January,  2024 issued an 'Advisory  for  Employers  to  Promote  Women  Workforce Participation'.  This  advisory  inter -alia  mentions  the  need  for  balance between employment and care responsibilities for both men and women including  family  friendly  measures  such  as  paternity  leave,  parental leave, family emergency leave and flexible working arrangements.

Further,  the  Union  Budget  (2024-25)  announced  setting  up  of working women hostels in collaboration with industry, and establishing creches, for increasing participation of women in the workforce.
