Economic development must address logistics and transportation. This report has outstanding data.
Recently, a top business newspaper reported that EMS firms create more jobs than component manufacturers for every Rupee invested. The news spread fast, but something didn’t sit right with us. 🤔 Could this be true? Or was this a one-sided view, potentially shaping government policy in ways that could hurt the industry's growth? So, our team at Electronics For You decided to dig deeper. We spoke to industry insiders—both EMS and component manufacturers—and even reached out to trade associations to get the complete picture. Here’s what we found 👇 👨🔧 Component manufacturing often hires 3 to 5 times more people than EMS firms of similar size. 👨🎓 EMS jobs can be more seasonal and often rely on unskilled labor, while component manufacturing offers longer-term, skilled employment. 👤 Automation is taking over EMS, with “dark room” factories on the horizon, meaning fewer jobs in the future. 🕺 Rural employment opportunities? Component manufacturing has the edge here, too. Both sectors have unique strengths and challenges, and both are vital to India’s electronics future. Policies should reflect this balance rather than favoring one over the other based on incomplete data. 📢 Curious about the full story? Check our detailed analysis, hear what industry leaders had to say, and decide for yourself where the real job opportunities lie. ➡️ Read the full article: https://lnkd.in/expSVYSv Let’s ensure that our industry’s growth is built on facts, not just headlines. #ElectronicsForYou #EMS #ComponentManufacturing #MakeInIndia #JobCreation #ManufacturingMatters
EMS firms provide more jobs than manufacturers of components? Really? Media has always been an important instrument to influence government policy. And that’s exactly why the media needs to ensure unbiased research and reporting. But, when leading media firms publish news items which cite unnamed industry experts, and all of them seem to be biassed towards one direction–it raises red flags. India’s electronics industry has already borne the consequences of many policies in the past, which were clearly influenced by those who did not have a serious stake in its growth. Now that we are seeing growth opportunities after a long time, we need to ensure that history does not repeat itself. I am referring to a news item that appeared in India’s leading business daily. This piece left us wondering if it was a well researched article, or was it developed to influence policy in a certain direction. In a nutshell, this news item simply hinted at the claim that EMS firms (electronics manufacturing services aka contract manufacturers) offer much more employment for labour as compared to manufacturers of electronics components–for every Crore invested in them. And, it laid the responsibility of this claim on the shoulders of “industry executives”. It went on to further hint that the Government of India might be influenced by such findings to offer more subsidies or incentives to EMS firms rather than manufacturers of electronics components. Wow! Talk about influencing policy. And, these industry executives who shared their views? No names. Not even a mention of their credentials. Could as well as be PR or marcom folks of those who want to influence such decisions. Did they try and get some counter views? Errr, again no. But, can we simply disqualify their claims without attempting to find the real facts? No, that would be shifting to the same level of journalism, which is not what Electronics For You stands for. Instead, our team of journalists–Nijhum Rudra, Nitisha Dubey & Yashaswini Razdaan spoke to their industry contacts. And to ensure that we don’t end up biassing our story–they spoke to representatives of both – EMS firms and manufacturers of components. Plus, then they spoke to heads of a few trade associations too–many of whom represent both categories of players.
