Though initially the migrants were largely from the neighbouring states and mostly seasonal and short-duration migration, at a later period the state started getting migrants from far distant states. Higher wages for unskilled labour in the state, large opportunities for employment, the reluctance on the part of Kerala workers to do menial and hard physical work, and shortage of local labour led to the massive influx of migrant labour to the state.This study takes a multi-dimensional overview of migrant labour in Kerala by encompassing the factors like channels of migration, reasons for migration, nature of employment contracts entered into and the corresponding wages and benefits obtained by them. The study is largely based on the empirical findings obtained as a result of the primary interviews conducted on migrant workers in the different districts of Kerala. The study concludes by saying that the State will inevitably have to depend on migrant labour and is likely to experience heavy in-migration of labour in future, provided that if the existing socio-economic and demographic situation persists. Therefore, the best way before the state is to prepare well in advance to welcome and receive the migrant labour in a hassle free environment, so that it would definitely play a vital role in further strengthening and sustaining the growth trajectory of not only Kerala’s economy but also of the states of origin of migrants. | ||
