Introduction
The principle of job reservation for
certain categories cannot, per se, be
faulted by anyone with a social
conscience. But there are problems in
applying such a policy in the private
sector. One way to get around them
would be for an industry association to
draw up and implement a scheme of
reservation under supervision by its
members.
India's job reservation
policy: extend, or
rethink?
 The Times of India reported that the UPA
government plans job quotas in the Private
Sector:
• In a significant departure from its oft-repeated stance
that implementation of quotas in private sector should
be "voluntary," the UPA government is considering
enacting a law to extend job reservations to the non-
government sector.
• Sources say government, which had so far
maintained that it would leave it to the private sector
to consider introducing job reservations, is now
bringing both an amendment to the Constitution, as
well as enacting a new law for the purpose.
 Is this such is a good idea?
Has Job Reservation Been Effective?
• The goal of reservation in India has been to bring about
an improvement in the welfare who, historically, have
been economically and socially depressed.
• But, in arriving at this judgment about who should be
eligible for reservation, the criterion has been a
person’s caste rather than his income or wealth .
• Consequently, groups belonging to what Article 115 of
the Indian Constitution calls “socially and educationally
backward classes” have benefited from reservation
even though, in practice, many of these groups could
not be regarded as “backward”.
• This has meant that many of the benefits of
reservation have been captured by well-off
groups from the depressed classes (for
example, chamars from the SC) while poorer
groups from the depressed (for example,
bhangis from the SC) have failed to benefit.

• Finally, job reservation policies placed little emphasis

on improving the job-related attributes of persons
from the SCT. Our simulations showed that even
modest improvements in the education levels of SCT
persons could deliver significant employment gains.
• It can be conclude that an alternative, and
more effective, way of raising the proportion
of prime-age men from the SC/ST groups in
regular salaried or wage employment would
be to improve their employment-related
attributes.

• Rather than extend the policy, it may be time

for a fundamental rethink.
Private sector job reservation — Striking the
middle path
• The principle of job reservation for certain categories
cannot, per se, be faulted by anyone with a social
conscience. But there are problems in applying such
a policy in the private sector. One way to get around
them would be for an industry association to draw up
and implement a scheme of reservation under
supervision by its members.
• Job reservation in the private sector holds out the
promise of making up for the loss of present and
future jobs reserved for the SC/STs in the public
sector due to the downsizing and privatisation of
government's activities and giving the private sector a
share in the fulfilment of the national social obligation
towards the SC/STs.
Should there be a job
Reservation??
Why???
 Company should recruit the people on the
basis of their skill, not by their cast/religions.
 Only skilled workers can help in the growth of
the company, not the reservation system.
 The survey result says that the reservation
system pulls down the Growth and
Development of the company.
 The reservation system is only the Welfare of
some backword people, that never help in
companies development unless there are
skilled workers.
Positive Aspects of Job reservation:
• Welfare of society
• Providing jobs to the depressed casts.
• Good relation between society and the
organization.
Negative aspects of job reservation:
• Skilled workers can not be recruited
• Depress the growth and development of
company.
• Change the mentality of people.
CONCLUSION
 From the above information we may come to a
conclusion that
“ RESERVATION system should be implemented”
whether its an Private sector or Public sector.
• company should recruit the people as per their
requirement and skill of people.
• After the “Privatization & Liberalization” policy
implemented in India in 1991, there is a high growth
seen in Indian.
 RECENT NEWS
• New Delhi: While the controversy over the Centre's move
for quota in elite educational institutions rages on; Orissa
government said on Sunday that it is contemplating to
bring a bill in the next session to reduce reservation
percentage for OBC candidates in government jobs.
• The reservation for the OBC candidates could be reduced
to 11 per cent from current 27 per cent. The OBC
candidates were getting 27 per cent reservation in jobs
since December 1994. Nearly 65 per cent of seats were now
kept reserved for different categories of candidates in
government jobs.
• ''This is to contain the total ratio of reservation within 50
per cent in accordance with the Supreme Court interim
order and a recent Orissa High Court judgment in this
regard,'' Scheduled Tribe and Scheduled Caste
 Development, Minorities and BackwardClass Welfare Minister
C.P Majhi told PTI.
• He, however, said that there would be no change in the ratio of
reservation for the ST and SC candidates in government jobs.
While 22.5 per cent of seats were reserved for ST candidates,
16.25 per cent of seats remained reserved for the SC
candidates.
• ''The ST and SC candidates would enjoy the reservation
facilities as earlier,'' he said.
• ''We have no other option than reducing the reservation ratio
for the OBC candidates. We cannot compromise with the
interest of ST and SC candidates who are economically
backward,'' a senior official was quoted by PTI. The
government had also decided to implement reservation in
contractual jobs.
• The move has irked a number of ruling party MLAs who
held a meeting this evening to discuss the course of action
if the government tables such a bill.
• ''We strongly oppose the government's move because
reducing the quota for the OBC candidates would have a
cascading effect on the society,'' BJD MLA and former
minister Ranendra Pratap Swain told PTI.
• Sources said the OBC MLAs from different parties have
been discussing the issue to chalk out strategies on how to
meet the situation if the government tables such a bill in
the assembly.
