India's workforce consists of approximately 473 million, with a majority being male and predominantly rural. Key issues include low female participation in the workforce, low productivity in rural areas, and a trend towards informal and casual employment. Unemployment arises from various factors, including slow economic growth and seasonal occupations, while the government's initiatives for employment generation face challenges such as poverty and lack of awareness.
