| Sumari: | Human migration is a universal phenomenon. It is a process through which people move from a
permanent place of residence to another more or less permanent one for a substantial period of time.The
characteristic feature of labour in India is its migratory character. Migration has provided the single most
dynamic factor in the otherwise dismal scenario of Kerala in the last quarters of the twentieth century. At
present the state of Kerala provides higher wage rates among the states in India. The differentials in wage
rates between Kerala and neighbouring states received the attention of workers in other states.
Migration of workers seeking employment in Kerala from other states is increasing. These workers are
not paid by Kerala level wages. The contract system of employment is also increasing in this state. And
they began to move into Kerala and to take up work, especially in the construction sector. What started as
a trickle soon assumed the dimensions of a torrent in the course of a few years. Thus started the era of
replacement migration to Kerala (Economic Review, 2006). In this context the current study on “Pattern of
Migration to Kerala” has been undertaken. |
