Abstract

Abstract: India has a large number of primary workers, so the Indian economy is highly unbalanced. Ahmednagar district is an agriculture-oriented district. This research paper is written to explore the changing pattern of work participation rate and the gender gap in the workforce among the tehsils of Ahmednagar district during 2001-2011. In the present study, the tehsils have been taken as the component areal units of the study region for determining the variation in the distribution of the workforce. The present study is entirely based on a secondary source of data collected from the census of the Ahmednagar district between 2001 and 2011. Simple statistical methods are used to process the collected data to calculate work participation rate, decadal variation, and gender gap. This paper has attempted a comprehensive study of the trends in the work participation rate tehsil level in general and male-female.
