PREFACE The Labour Bureau has been compiling, maintaining and disseminating State-wise as well as All-India average daily wage rates in respect of 18 agricultural and nonagricultural occupations. These wage rates are compiled on the basis of the daily wage rates collected from 600 sample villages, spread over 66 NSS regions, falling in 20 States. Though these wage rates are compiled and released every month through Indian Labour Journal and Labour Bureau s website http://labourbureau.gov.in, it was felt that, in view of the usage of the wage rate data, they may be presented in a compact manner. Accordingly, Labour Bureau started publishing Wage Rates in Rural India. The present Publication which is thirteenth in the series, contains information in respect of average daily wage rates for 18 agricultural and non-agricultural occupations, State-wise as well as All-India. These data, besides being utilized for working out the costs of cultivation for the purpose of fixation and revision of support/procurement prices, of both Kharif and Rabi crops, are also utilized as inputs for policy formulation and by researchers as well. I appreciate the efforts made by the officers and staff of Wage Rate Unit (Annexure- II) of Labour Bureau in bringing out this publication. The Bureau welcomes suggestions for improvement of this publication. SHIMLA Dated : 9 th Septmber, 2011 B. N. NANDA DIRECTOR GENERAL

1. SUMMARY OF MAIN FINDINGS The main findings of the data are summarised below : a) Agricultural occupations: 1. All-India annual average daily wage rates in different agricultural occupations during the year 2009-10 varied widely from Rs.62.23 for male herdskeepers to Rs.140.81 for male labourers engaged in well digging ; from Rs.46.66 for female herds-keepers to Rs.86.71 for female labourers engaged in transplanting activities; and from Rs.42.75 for child herds-keepers to Rs.61.72 for children employed in harvesting occupation. 2. Amongst agricultural occupations, well digging was observed to be the highest paid occupation for men probably on account of the requirement of skill and risk in the performance of the activity followed by ploughing and sowing occupations. During the year 2009-10, the all-india average daily wage rates in well digging ranged between Rs.147.18 in June, 2010 to Rs.130.63 in July, 2009. 3. Transplanting occupation fetched highest wages for women followed by harvesting and threshing occupations. The all-india average daily wage rates for women in threshing occupation were highest at Rs.94.35 in May, 2010. 4. Children got highest wages in Harvesting occupation in the range of Rs.53.07 in July,2009 to Rs.68.03 in May,2010, followed by weeding and sowing occupations.

5. During 2009-10, herds-keeping was observed to be the least remunerative occupation for men, women and child workers as the annual average daily wage rates in this occupation were reported to be as low as Rs.62.23, Rs.46.66 and Rs.42.75 respectively. b) Non-agricultural occupations: 1. The all-india annual average daily wage rates in non- agricultural occupations during the year 2009-10 also varied widely from Rs.71.82 for male sweepers to Rs.182.92 for male masons ; from Rs.77.69 for female unskilled labourers to Rs.74.34 for female sweepers. In case of children, due to non-receipt of sufficient number of quotations, the all-india annual average daily wage rate could be calculated for unskilled labourers only, which worked out to Rs.51.02. 2. Amongst non-agricultural occupations, masonry was observed to be the highest paid occupation for men, followed by carpentry and tractor driving. During the year 2009-10, the all-india average daily wages for male masons ranged between Rs.171.35 in July, 2009 to Rs.193.43 in June, 2010. 3. Unskilled Labour was the highest paid occupation for women as the all-india average daily wages in that occupation ranged between Rs.72.79 in July, 2009 to Rs.83.05 in June, 2010. 4. During the year 2009-10, the all-india average daily wages for children engaged as unskilled labourers ranged between Rs.46.63 in July, 2009 and Rs.56.54 in June, 2010. 5. Sweeping was found to be the lowest paid occupation for both men and women during the year under reference with an all-india average daily wage rate of Rs.71.82 and Rs.74.34 respectively

6. The average daily wage rates for women were found to be generally lower than those for men in most of the occupations. These may be attributed to variation in the number of quotations as the wage differential based on sex was not that significant at sample village level. 7. None of the female workers were found engaged as carpenters, blacksmiths, cobblers, mason or tractor drivers and hence no wage rate was reported for these occupations during the year 2009-10. c) Monthwise Average daily wage rates of States in Agricultural and non- Agricultural occupations : 1. Amongst States, Kerala had the highest average daily wage rates in almost all the occupations during the year 2009-10. 2. The average daily wage rates in the hill States of Himachal Pradesh and Jammu & Kashmir were quite high in comparison to certain developed States such as Maharashtra, Gujarat and Punjab. 3. The average daily wage rates in almost all the occupations were observed to be lowest in the State of Madhya Pradesh during the year.

2. METHODOLOGY FOR COMPILATION OF THE WAGE RATE DATA 2.1. INTRODUCTION It is universally accepted that a number of factors determine the agrarian structure of a country such as its physical features, natural resources, population growth, pressure on land, level of economic development, level of effective utilization of resources and the institutional factors namely land tenure systems and inheritance laws. Historically, in the resources hierarchy of India, agriculture has been of utmost importance. Agriculture is not only an economic activity but a way of life for a vast majority in this country. It is the main source of man-power supply to the fast growing industrial sector in India and market for industrial products. As such, its inherent problems are at the root of many other problems in the economy. Moreover, agricultural labour constitutes the most vulnerable segment of the unorganised work force. Being unorganized and scattered, rural labour is deprived of the benefits of labour enactments and employer-employee relationships which their counter parts enjoy in the organized sector of the economy. Agricultural labourers have to live with casual employment, frequent changes of employers as well as places and no fixed pay. There is however a scanty information base on the working and living conditions of this segment of labour market. The only major source of reliable information on socio-economic conditions of the rural labour is the Rural Labour Enquiry conducted on quinquennial basis. Consumer Price Index Numbers for Agricultural and Rural Labourers, released by the Bureau on monthly basis, provide data for the fixation and revision of minimum wages in agriculture under the Minimum Wages Act, 1948. This data has also been found useful for the calculation of State/National Income and in the assessment of costs of cultivation of crops.

Technical Working Group on rural retail prices set up by the NSSO in 1974, in its recommendation to revise/update the series of Consumer Price Index Numbers for Agricultural and Rural Labourers, felt the need for a regular in-flow of wage data for rural workers. Since prices and wages are related to each other, it was felt that it would be useful if trend of these two characteristics were available on the basis of same coverage. The Group, therefore, suggested collection of wage rates for a number of occupations from a suitable sample of villages in various states so that a fairly representative picture of wage situation is available for the entire country on a continuous basis. In view of the recommendations of the Group, the wage rate data in respect of 11 agricultural and 7 non-agricultural occupations entailing manual work are being collected along with rural retail prices from 600 sample villages spread over 20 states in the country since July, 1986 with the following objectives: i) for enforcement of minimum wages fixed/revised by the Government; ii) for drawing up and implementation of Wage Policy; and iii) for estimation of State Domestic Product/National Income and Cost of Cultivation studies. The compilation of wage rate data was however, held in abeyance for some time, owing to some problem with regard to the veracity of data with reference to the purpose for which it was being collected. During the year 1995, the Governing Council of the National Sample Survey Organisation not only sorted out the problems but also recommended that the wage rate data should continue to be collected and published every month. In pursuance of the recommendation of the Council, the Labour Bureau took up the work of compiling wage rate data since the agricultural year 1995-96. These data are now being compiled on regular monthly basis and published in monthly publication of the Bureau, the Indian Labour Journal since April, 1998.

2.2. SAMPLE SIZE Since the rural retail prices for compilation of CPI Numbers for Agricultural/Rural Labourers and wage rates are collected from the same set of sample villages, the state-wise sample size was, therefore, decided by the Working Group as per the need for constructing the CPI No s for (i) Agricultural and for (ii) Rural Labourers. The state-wise distribution of the number of regions, strata and sample villages is given below: Sl.No. State Region Strata Sample village 1 Andhra Pradesh 4 18 54 2 Assam 3 8 27 3 Bihar 3 13 39 4 Gujarat 5 10 30 5 Haryana 2 4 12 6 Himachal Pradesh 1 3 9 7 Jammu & Kashmir 3 5 21 8 Karnataka 4 11 36 9 Kerala 2 5 21 10 Madhya Pradesh 7 23 69 11 Maharashtra 6 18 54 12 Manipur 2 2 9 13 Meghalaya 1 2 9 14 Orissa 3 8 33 15 Punjab 2 5 15 16 Rajasthan 4 7 21 17 Tamil Nadu 4 11 33 18 Tripura 1 3 9 19 Uttar Pradesh 5 20 60 20 West Bengal 4 11 39 Total 66 187 600

2.3. COLLECTION OF DATA The wage rate data, along with rural retail prices are being collected by the Field Operations Division of the National Sample Survey Organisation from 600 sample villages spread over 66 NSS regions of 20 States by convassing Block-5 (Annexure-I) of Schedule 3.01(R). Data collection from these sample villages is staggered over four weeks of a month with one-fourth of them being covered every week. The days of convassing of Schedule 3.01(R) are fixed. The village functionaries like the Panchayat Secretary, Progress Assistant, Patwari and other Village or Block Officials are the primary informants for data on wage rates. The data on normal working hours and the prevailing wage rates in cash and kind for the reported working hours are collected sex-wise for each of the 18 selected occupations in 20 states. The selected occupations for which daily wage rates are being collected every month are as follows: A. Agricultural Occupations B. Non-agricultural Occupations 1. Ploughing 1. Carpenter 2. Sowing 2. Blacksmith 3. Weeding 3. Cobbler 4.Transplanting 4. Mason 5.Harvesting 5. Tractor Driver 6.Winnowing 6. Sweeper 7.Threshing 7. Unskilled Labour (un-specified) 8. Picking 9. Herdsman 10.Well Digging 11.Cane Crushing

2.4. PROCESS OF COMPILATION OF AVERAGE WAGE RATES The data received from the field is posted separately for agricultural and nonagricultural occupations for 20 states every month. In case the wage rates are reported for a duration of less or more than the normal working hours, then these are first adjusted for eight hours working day. Payment of wages is made in cash and/or in kind. Payments in kind are very common in rural areas which include foodgrains, cooked food, tea, fuel, cigarette, bidi, fodder, etc. Wages reported in kind are evaluated at the prevailing local retail prices. Thereafter, data is thoroughly scrutinised and discrepancies, if any, are referred back to the field for clarification. In the next stage, a simple arithmetic average of these normalised daily wage rates is worked out, occupation-wise and sex-wise for each State as follows: W = 1 n n i= 1 Wi Where W represents wage and n number of villages in the State. Similarly, the average wage rates at all-india level are derived by dividing the sum total of wages of all the 20 States by the number of quotations. State-wise averages are restricted only to those occupations where the number of quotations are five or more in order to avoid inconsistency in wages paid to different categories of workers on account of difference in number of quotations. However, for working out all-india averages, all those neglected quotations are taken into account to arrive at total number of quotations at all-india level. At all-india level also, the number of quotations for working out occupation-wise averages are restricted to five or more.

The present publication provides wage rate data in respect of 11 agricultural and 7 non-agricultural occupations for 20 states and all-india for the agricultural year 2009-10. The dash (-) in Tables against various occupations indicate that no wage rate was reported during the reference month for various reasons, such as: (i) either the activity connected with the occupation was not undertaken in the State; or (ii) the activity was out of season in the State; or (iii) the particular category of workers (i.e. Men/Women/Children) were not engaged in that operation.
