Article Link: The
Hindu Business Line - CII bats for an integrated national employment policy in
upcoming Budget
Extract from the article:
The Hindu Business Line reported that the Confederation of
Indian Industry (CII) is advocating for the implementation of an integrated
national employment policy in the forthcoming Budget.
As part of a seven-point agenda, CII has urged the
government to establish this comprehensive policy to address the employment
scenario in the country.
The call for an integrated policy reflects the need for a
holistic approach to tackle the ongoing challenges in job creation and quality
employment opportunities.
This proposed policy is anticipated to cover various facets
of the economy and social sectors, thereby aiming to boost employment
generation across industries.
My
Take:
National Jobs Policy: Treasure Hunt
The government's consideration of introducing a national
employment policy aligns with the predictions and suggestions I made in my blog
post from December 2017.
I had highlighted the significance of such a policy to
combat rising unemployment and generate quality jobs across different sectors.
The fact that CII is now pushing for an integrated national
employment policy echoes the foresight I presented in my earlier blog.
It's fulfilling to see the evolution of discussions around
this critical issue over the years, indicating a step towards addressing the
employment challenges effectively.
Employment Policy? Committed to a
Committee?
In my blog from October 2021, I referenced the potential
establishment of a committee to formulate India's first National Employment
Policy.
The recent call by CII for an integrated national employment
policy resonates with the ongoing efforts to enhance employment opportunities
in the country.
By looking back at my previous insights on the necessity of
a comprehensive employment policy, I feel encouraged to see concrete steps
being taken towards its realization.
The formation of this policy committee reflects a proactive
approach towards addressing the employment dynamics and fostering economic
growth.
Call
to Action:
To the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) and
policymakers, I urge a collaborative and inclusive approach towards designing
and implementing the integrated national employment policy.
It is essential to involve stakeholders from various sectors
to ensure the policy's effectiveness in driving substantial improvements in
employment generation and quality jobs.
Let's work together to shape a progressive and inclusive
employment landscape for the nation's economic prosperity.
With regards,
Hemen Parekh
