2024 Benchmark Report: Living Wage Report for Assam (Dibrugarh District), India

Abstract

This study estimated the living wage and living income needed for a typical family of 4 persons in Dibrugarh district, Assam to lead a basic but decent life, based on normal working hours. These estimates are considered applicable broadly to rural Assam as a whole because of the similarities of agroclimatic conditions, food habits, and consumption patterns. Detailed field investigation was carried out during November-December 2024 in the various subdivisions (development blocks) of Dibrugarh district, Assam. Assam accounts for more than 50% of the tea produced in India and Dibrugarh district has the highest concentration of tea gardens.
