17 July 2015
1
Reality Check
• 1073 Mn population with a 460 mn workforce
Unemployment at 9.1% - 42 mn (CIA World
Fact Book)

entire population of UK, France & Italy
• 90% workforce in the unorganised sector

source of work or income
17 July 2015
2
Reality Check
• Abysmally low per capita income- India
($460), US ($30000), Sri Lanka($833)
• Overall productivity extremely low – India
($5.45/person), Thailand ($11.69), Mexico

causing urban poverty, slum dwellings
proliferation, crime, etc
• Low skill levels among women causing rise in

Falling Short
• 2.5 mn graduates passing out of colleges each
year without skills connecting to employment
• ITIs - outdated curriculum, outmoded attitude,
lack of quality trainers & output
• Mismatch between educational system output
and Industry’s manpower requirements
• Over 70 per cent of the labour force combined
(organized and unorganized sector) is illiterate or
educated below the primary level.
17 July 2015

Skewed ???
• Employment skewed - agriculture 55%, services
28%, industry 17%
• At present rate of Urbanization, 46% of total
population i.e. 634 mn people in urban regions of
India by 2030 – (UN,1998)
• Countries like Srilanka, Phillipines & Bangladesh
seizing international opportunities for
employment
• Areas such as Agriculture, Construction, Travel &
Tourism, Retail, Healthcare completely unbenchmarked causing un-competitiveness
17 July 2015
6
The Way We Are Headed
• Rise in educated unemployment leading to disaffected &
disillusioned youth
• Education raising aspirations but not providing skills for
commensurate level of jobs & remuneration causing
discontent
• The level of frustration a potential cause for Socioeconomic backlash – insurgency & terrorism
• Global un-competitiveness of Industry/workforce/economy
• Excessive strain on urban public services causing urban
un-sustainability
• Spatially imbalanced growth; sections of society
disaffected & not partaking in economic growth

‘The Skills Capital of The World’
17 July 2015

Mission
• Provide skills that connect directly to work and
effectively address the Skills gap and
unemployment resulting thereof
• Help industry deliver internationally competitive
performance by having access to locally
available, internationally benchmarked, skilled
manpower trained in line with their requirements

based on a sustainable framework with
consistency

Opportunities
• Globally Ageing Population – over the next
few years Japan (8mn), USA (17mn), Europe
(20mn) will retire creating global employment
opportunities
• Young Indian Population – 53% below age of
24;
• Government focus on Education &
Employment as a priority
• Independent Organizations/institutes already
on ground doing work though in isolation
• Spare Capacity for Training delivery exists –
Services Network/ ITIs /Colleges

Pit-Falls
• False sense of superiority & comfort with statusquo without measuring against global standards
• Aspiring to become a Service economy without a
well developed Manufacturing Sector
• Psychological mindset of Indians favouring
degree qualifications and not understanding the
benefits of vocational education
• Socio-cultural attitude to look down upon bluecollared jobs.
• Opposition from parties with vested interests,
conventional education system
17 July 2015
12
Hypocritical???
• 90% cut-off at Delhi University? (Long queues, no
job connection.)
• Is theory backed up by practical experience?
• Would you have your son join an ITI today?
• Would you have your daughter marry a blue
collared worker?
• Would you have your son undertake a vocational
course rather than a bachelor’s/professional
degree?
• Whom do you respect more a plumber or an
accountant?
17 July 2015
13
Challenges
• To build a scale that is meaningful and can dent
unemployment significantly
• To build consensus
• To work across the length & breadth of the
country
• To work across sectors/industries
• To ensure consistent output across the country
in line with Internationally benchmarked
standards
• To do this on a sustainable basis
17 July 2015
14
Challenges – Blue/White/Grey/Rust
• While aspiring for white collars, not to forget that grey /
blue/ rust collar are essential for balanced economic growth
• Drain from blue collar jobs impoverishes Manufacturing
sector, depletes industry from valuable human capital
causing drag on performance and rendering industry
uncompetitive
• To bring about balanced development between the
Services, Manufacturing and Agriculture Sectors
• Develop Blue/Grey/White/Rust collar workforce to
International standards
• Scale up the value chain in each of these sectors
17 July 2015
15
Four Collared Work Force
•Requirement of a system that produces a multi-collar
workforce.
•White collar work force- fortunately there is no shortage in
this category.
•Grey collar workforce -the knowledge worker. Which
includes ICT skills, problem solving, analytical, and effective
communication skills.
•Blue collar workforce - for shop floor work in manufacturing
and the service sector.
•Rust collar work force - trained in basic skills across
sectors.
