Employment in Tertiary Sector

Employment in Tertiary Sector B B BHATTACHARYA AND ARUP MITRA (EPW, March 15) provide new insights into the changing composition of employment in the tertiary sector. It is interesting to note that the percentage share of the tertiary sector in total labour force tends to stabilise at higher stages of development. On the other hand, the impact of globalisation (TRD. measured by the ratio of the sum of exports and imports toGNP) on employment in the tertiary sector is not significant.
