Abstract The aim of this paper is to study the role of industrial sector in generating employment in the economy and at the same time to the contribution towards economy growth. With the limited amount of capital resources, the industrial sector holds promise of creating greater employment opportunities. This is so because most of industries are more labour intensive i., they employ more labour per units of capital. Around 16% of the employment is provided by the sector. Industrial development leads to the generation of huge amounts of revenue. The establishment and expansion of capital goods and large scale industries contribute much to revenue generation. These industries contribute to employment generation and thereby to the generation of income and revenue. An increase in industrialization can lead to lower rates of unemployment and poverty in a certain region. Industrial developments lead to more jobs in both large and small scale businesses, which allows for more opportunity for those who may be unemployed otherwise. The paper also emphasis on the relationship between the employment generation and economic growth and with certain recommended some policy measures in order to boost industrial output by improving the overall productivity of all the sectors and ensure sustainable development
