Our collaboration with the Tata Institute of Social Sciences in Mumbai

Research on Indian labour market

In 2007, Adecco concluded an agreement with the Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS) in Mumbai to establish the Adecco-TISS Labour Market Research Initiative (ATLMRI). It is staffed by an associate professor with a team of four researchers.

ATLMRI’s research is focused on a variety of Indian labour market issues. More particularly, it examines how globalisation creates a competitive economy that requires new skills and forms of organisation of work, with new labour standards and practices. The team brings out quarterly updates on the labour market situation in India.
