Gujarat Jobs People are moving off the farm and into other kinds of work in Gujarat. Gujarat is one of the few states where the share of salaried jobs increased after 2005, led by manufacturing and services. Despite this, overall job growth in the state has been slow. Half the workforce is still on the farm and women have withdrawn from the labor force in large numbers. Non-farm employment is increasing in Gujarat, but half the workforce is still on the farm Employment share by sector, (%) 100 39 42 51 80 60 ■ Non-farm 60 58 ■ Farm 40 49 20 0 1994 2005 2012 The share of non-farm employment in Gujarat is similar to the national average Non-farm employment share, 2012 (%) 100 100 96 80 74 73 65 64 61 61 60 58 57 51 51 51 51 50 50 50 48 47 45 44 44 43 42 41 40 38 40 38 32 27 20 0 DL GA KL TR TN PJ MN WB JK HR GJ UK AI MH JH KA RJ UP AP MZ OD AS MG HP MP NL SK BH AR CG Low Income States are highlighted in orange, AI is All India. 1 June 20, 2017 Gujarat Jobs Job creation was modest in Gujarat after 2005 Number of jobs added, 2005-2012 (mn) Annual job growth, 2005-2012 (%) WB WB 1.8 UP UP 0.8 RJ RJ 1.1 MH MH 0.5 CG CG 1.6 BH BH 0.5 OD OD 0.7 AP AP 0.3 DL DL 2.2 MP MP 0.4 GJ GJ 0.3 TN TN 0.2 PJ PJ 0.5 TR TR 4.4 HP HP 1.3 SK SK 3.9 MG MG 0.7 GA GA 1.3 MZ MZ 1.1 MN MN 0.1 AR AR -0.1 AS AS 0.0 KL KL -0.1 JH JH -0.2 HR HR -0.3 NL NL -3.6 UK UK -1.0 KA KA -0.5 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 Low Income States are highlighted in orange, AI is All India.
