Abstract
The predominance of migrant labourers from different parts of the country is the striking aspect of the Kerala labour market today. Even though it is not a recent phenomenon, its nature has been changing over the years. The main objective of the paper is to give a general view of labour migration to Kerala, particularly the increasing number of migrant population, and shifts in the sources and destinations of migration. This paper shows that the economy largely depends on the migrant labourers especially for the manual and casual works.
