Abstract
India launching itself on a higher growth trajectory has brought accolades as well as apprehensions to the fore. The issue of employment and employability of the Indian labour force assumes significance in this light. Employability of an individual is seen to depend on the knowledge and skills possessed; the attitude towards employment, and the economic context within which employment is availed. Perhaps as a first, the report treats the challenge of employability as being not just limited to the persons unemployed but takes a comprehensive approach to include the persons sub-optimally employed as well. The report maintains that employability is inextricably linked to the prevailing human resource regime. The study brings out the degree of unemployability among the Indian youth based on quantitative information and then proceeds to estimate their training requirements - providing a cost to such training as well. Before turning to India specific solutions to the unemployability issue the report takes a stock of the global experience in the field.
