Methodology	The PLFS adopts a robust methodology by surveying households across different states and union territories in India. The data is divided according to urban and rural sectors, genders, and other significant categorical variables. The survey gathers information about individuals' employment statuses, educational attainments, working hours, and earning patterns. The PLFS tracks not only conventional metrics such as LFPR, WPR, and UR but also captures the educational attainment of the workforce and the distribution of usually working persons across different industries.
