NEW DELHI: As corporate India is expected to continue employing more people, Naresh Malhan, MD, Manpower India says, "As most public-private partnership deals take shape, mining and construction sector will see a boom."
"As investment in infrastructure goes up, construction will be the biggest beneficiary in the next five years," Malhan adds.
Following close behind is the service sector, which too is expected to see brisk hiring.
The employment outlook stands at a high 47% although the sector has seen a 11% dip since last year.
"This is because of a slowdown in the IT/ITES, aviation, hospitality, travel and tourism sectors because of inflationary pressures," Malhan explains.
Telecom, however, will continue to fuel growth in services. Finance, insurance and realty too will hire but it will be less than earlier.
