India to supply quarter of global workforce by 2033

NEW DELHI, INDIA — India is on track to assert its position as the foremost global provider of human resources, with projections suggesting it will supply about 24.3% of the global workforce over the next decade.
Leveraging its youthful population, India is steadily enhancing its human capital to meet global labor demands.
Strategic investments in education, skill development, and healthcare are set to nurture over one billion of its working population into a valuable national asset.
The country’s younger median age of 28.4 years also plays a vital role in addressing future labor shortages. With around 67% of its population in the 15 to 64 age group, India’s demographic profile is ideal to meet growing global workforce requirements.
The country’s substantial pool of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) graduates, including an impressive 47.1% of women, further bolsters its position.
Aided by the vision of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, India’s surplus labor force is expected to be deployed to global employment opportunities, underlining its ambition to become the world’s human resource capital.
India’s anticipated contribution to the global workforce is set to boost its own economy and support global development by filling labor gaps in numerous countries.
With continued investment in human capital development and capitalization on its demographic strengths, India is set to redefine global workforce dynamics over the next decade.
