Who Will Create Jobs ?



Certainly , not BIG companies !


Here is the proof :

Economic Times ( 03 Nov ) carries following news report :




“ Big Cos Not So Big On Job Creation “



For instance, the gross block of top 10 large companies, such as L&T, BHEL and Indian Oil, rose 8.6 % a year since 2008 , but headcount increased at just 0.5 %  a year


The average manpower growth at Manufacturing companies included in the BSE 500 was 2.88 % a year , with more additions at smaller companies



To validate , just take any BIG company’s Annual Report


Find out


( A )…… “ No of Employees “

( B )…" Total Capital ( Fixed + Working ) Employed “


Divide….. B / A


You will come up with a figure of Rs ONE CRORE or more !


India adds ONE MILLION ( 10 lakh ) persons per month to its workforce  ( 12 Million / year )


Let us “ desire “ that , out of this 10 lakh , BIG companies should provide jobs to just 1 lakh persons



That means , BIG companies would need to put in Rs ONE lakh*crore worth of CAPITAL ( Fixed + Working ) , EVERY MONTH !



Even if market demand keeps GROWING for their “ Products / Services “ [ month after month ] , who has that kind of money ?  (  Remember , even the fastest growing markets for  any product / service is no more than 1 % per month ! )



And putting up large / organized sector businesses , take years – especially , factories !



So , what should be the government’s focus as far as job creation is concerned ?



It should be “ Self Employed “ sector , at the “ Bottom of the Pyramid “ !



Obviously , it is not practical to increase the number of “ Licensed Hawkers “ in Mumbai , from ONE LAKH to TEN LAKH , without bringing all traffic ( pedestrian and vehicular ), to a complete stop



But we must find a way to enable ONE MILLION ( 10 lakh ) flat / hut owners to carry on business from their homes / residences , by simply registering as “ Self Employed from Home “ ,  as long as such business / industry / service is non-hazardous ( air pollution – noise pollution – chemical effluent – explosives – harmful radiation – vending of banned items – delivering of banned services etc )

Any other approach is “ Bakwaas “  !
