Genesis

The Institute of Applied Manpower Research (IAMR) the only institution of its kind was established in 1962 under the Societies Registration Act of 1860 as an institution that would function as a clearing-house of ideas and undertake policy research on human capital development to inform perspective planning and promote policy integration. The main object of the Institute is to advance knowledge about the nature, characteristics and utilization of human resources through research, education and training, consultancy etc.

IAMR has been renamed as National Institute of Labour Economics Research and Development (NILERD) on 9th June, 2014. NILERD is mainly funded by grants-in-aid from the NITI Aayog (formerly Planning Commission), Government of India, and supplemented by its own revenue from contracted research projects, and education & training activities. The prime objective of NILERD has been to develop an institutional framework capable of sustaining and steering a systematic applied human resource planning research process.

Since its inception, the Institute has carved out its own trajectory to achieve academic heights, and in the process, developed a range of academic activities not only in the field of human resource planning and development, but also in monitoring and evaluation of public policies and programmes. During the past few years, the Institute has exhibited remarkable dynamism in addressing the issues of national priorities. The Institute has emerged as a pioneering institute in providing academic training on human resource planning and development for both international and national participants.

 

Management of the Institute

The chief executive of NILERD for its management is Director-General (DG). The academic activities of the Institute are carried out through various technical units headed by a senior level officer and assisted by necessary supporting faculty and staff.

The Institute has a modest computer center, an editorial unit and a knowledge resource center (KRC).
