PLFS: Year, Region, Gender, and Status wise Worker Population Ratio
This dataset presents the Worker Population Ratio (WPR), in percentage, based on usual status (ps+ss) and current weekly status (CWS), using data from the Periodic Labour Force Survey (PLFS) conducted by the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation.
Survey years previously followed a July–June cycle (e.g., 2023–24 refers to July 2023–June 2024). From 2025 onward, data is reported on a calendar-year basis (January–December), with data for 2022–2024 also published in calendar-year format in the 2025 report.
