Out of this 62.1 million population, 59.5 million are employed in both formal and informal sector (41.8 million male and 17.8 million female). Rest 2.6 millions are unemployed (This people do not work even for an hour weekly as per ILO standard). Among male, 81.9% is presently employed and among women, present employment rate is 35.6%. Most of them are entering the job market without requisite skills and basic competencies for formal work resulting in high level of unemployment. In particular, out of school girls are facing competitive job-seeking migration, limited access to vocational training and skills development, and lack of preparedness for the actual needs of the labor market. Furthermore, out of school girls, especially those are from marginalized ethnic minority community have additional barriers and risks that often relegate them to lower-paying jobs and lower-status work. The wage difference between male and female still remain as a problem.
