Labor Bureau Recruitment 2013 For Contractual Engagement of Contract Investigators and Supervisors
Labor Statistics in India may be said to have originated when the first national population census was conducted in 1872. This census gave not only the count of number of persons, but also the number of gainfully employed. Since then every census has thrown useful data on workers in different industries and occupations every 10 years. Besides the statistics on employment thrown by the census, other data on labor statistics were collected on ad-hoc basis, mostly as a byproduct of administration of labor laws and not as a basis for formulation of labor policies.
At present Labor Bureau is responsible for the collation, collection and publication of statistics and related information on wages, earnings, productivity, absenteeism, labor turn-over, industrial relations, working and living conditions and evaluation of working of various labor enactments etc. It is a storehouse of important economic indicators like Consumer Price Index Numbers for Industrial, Agricultural and Rural Laborers; wage rate indices and data on industrial relations, socio-economic conditions in the organized and unorganized sector of industry etc.
