This paper analyses data collected through field surveys in West Bengal to understand the factors that determine the rural workers' choice of mode of employment in the non-farm sector. The paper also looks into employment and earnings levels of the non-farm workers under different modes of employment. The questions specifically addressed are: (i) What has been the degree of participation in the non-farm sector by the rural workers? (ii) What are important modes of employment for the rural non-farm workers? (iii) What are different activities/sub-sectors in which the non-farm workers under different modes of employment are involved? (iv) What have been the 'intensity of employment' and 'earnings per worker' under different modes of employment in the non-farm sector? (v) What are main determinants of the rural non-farm workers' choice of mode of employment.
