About This Data

The data on organised sector employment in Kerala from 2015 to 2025 shows a gradual increase in total employment over the years. In 2015, the total number of employees in the organised sector was 11,37,683, which steadily increased to 12,59,604 by 2025. Public sector employment remained relatively stable during this period, rising slightly from 5,70,915 in 2015 to 5,58,637 in 2025 with only minor fluctuations. In contrast, employment in the private sector showed a consistent increase, growing from 5,66,768 in 2015 to 7,00,967 in 2025. This indicates that most of the growth in organised sector employment has been driven by the expansion of the private sector. Gender-wise data shows that male employment is higher in the public sector, while female employment is comparatively higher in the private sector. Overall, the data highlights the increasing role of the private sector in generating organised employment opportunities in Kerala.
