- India aims to increase the female labour force participation rate (FLFPR) from 41.7% in FY24 to 55% by 2030.
- Measures include flexible and remote work, equal pay, safer workplaces, affordable childcare, and formal recognition of unpaid care work.
- The care economy is being formalised, potentially creating millions of jobs, mostly for women.
- Investing 2% of GDP in the sector could generate 11 million jobs.
- Latest data shows FLFPR at 34.1% (Sept 2025 weekly status) and 33.4% (April–June 2025 quarter).
- The Shram Shakti Niti 2025 draft highlights expanding women’s access to decent employment to harness India’s demographic advantage.
