Foreign Direct Investment and Labour: The Case of Indian ManufacturingVinoj AbrahamCentre for Development Studies, Trivandrum, India Manoj Sahooaffiliation not provided to SSRN Jaya Prakash PradhanCentral University of Karnataka - Department of Economic Studies & Planning - School of Business Studies; Sardar Patel Institute of Economic & Social Research February 1, 2004 Labour & Development, Vol. 10, No. 1, pp. 58-79, 2004 Abstract: This paper makes an attempt to evaluate the employment and wage effects of FDI in Indian manufacturing. The findings suggest that foreign firms do not have any adverse effects on the manufacturing employment in India as compared to their domestic counterparts while they significantly pay relatively higher to their workers. Therefore this study tends to imply that labour in fact had benefited from foreign investment in India.
