Human Resource
The skilled and semi skilled manpower who are
actively involved in certain employment activities are
called human resource. Human resource development
is most essential for the social and economic
development of any nation. Without sufficient human
resource, the nation can not develop in any sector. It
has been observed that the developed nations in the Fig: 8

for human resource development. Hence, the country should focus on production of
human resource who can support in controlling population, develop infrastructure, use
the resources in sustainable way and maintain balance in population, environment and
development.

Employment
Employment is getting involved in some income
generating activities. People must have employment.
People can have employment opportunities in
industries, factories, commercial sector, agricultural
sector, government services, private sectors, etc. With
the employment opportunities, people get chances
to utilize their knowledge, skills and sharpen their Fig: 9

of industries, factories and other commercial sectors. Even, people say they have unseen
unemployment in agriculture sector. Hence, there is huge migration of youths abroad
as foreign employment. They have to face a lot more challenges in abroad. It is most
essential that the government should generate employment opportunities in various
sectors. Creation of job opportunities supports in population management on the one
hand and on the other hand, there is proper utilization of resources which ultimately
enhance economic development in the country.
