34. Coastal transformation and fisher wellbeing: Perspectives from Cuddalore District, Tamil Nadu, India

Author

Menon, Ajit, Bavinck, Maarten, Lawrence, Tara N., Nitya Rao, Muthusankar, G., Balasubramanian, D., Arunkumar, A.S., Bhagath Singh, A., Senthil Babu, D., and Bautes, Nicolas

Subjects
Coastal transformation, India, Fishers wellbeing, Aquaculture, Coromandel Coast, Geospatial changes, Tamil Nadu, Industrialisation, Cuddalore
Abstract

This report presents the results of a multi-disciplinary research project on the way the Indian coast is transforming and what consequences this has for the original fisher population. It takes Cuddalore District in Tamil Nadu as microcosm and discusses issues such as the industrialization of the coast, the changes affecting fisheries, land-use change, pollution and erosion. The final chapters consider the ways in which fisher wellbeing is impacted and how the fisher population – individually and collectively – responds. The authors argue that coastal transformation in India is many-sided and profound, and that the fishing population is bearing the brunt of modernization.

47. Job Satisfaction in the Shrimp Trawl Fisheries of Chennai, India

Author

Bavinck, Maarten

Abstract

Shrimp trawling represents an important fishing metier in South India, generating high levels of employment and economic value. It is also a contested metier, ostensibly contributing to environmental degradation and social inequality. This paper investigates the job satisfaction of crew members (captains and workers) on board the shrimp trawlers of Chennai (former Madras). Research took place in 2007 and 2008 (N = 137). Results suggest a general satisfaction with being in the fishery. However, a little over three-fifths of fishers said they would be willing to change fishing metier and about one-half said they would leave the occupation. About one-half also said they would not advise a young person to enter the occupation. The tendency to move away from the fishery is argued to reflect a growing pessimism about the future of the shrimp trawl fisheries, but also an increasing awareness of other economic opportunities.

48. Job Satisfaction in Fisheries Compared

Author

Pollnac, Richard, Bavinck, Maarten, and Monnereau, Iris

Abstract

This article draws comparative lessons from seven job satisfaction studies on marine capture fishing that were recently carried out in nine countries and three geographical regions--Asia, Africa, and the Caribbean. The seven studies made use of an identical job satisfaction assessment tool and present information on a selection of metiers mainly in the small-scale and semi-industrial fishing sectors. The responses manifest statistically significant geographical variation. Multidimensional plots and cluster analyses lead the authors to identify three clusters: (1) Southeast Asian (Vietnam and Thailand); (2) Caribbean (Belize, Nicaragua, Dominican Republic) and (3) Afro-Indian (Senegal, Guinea Bissau, and India). Jamaica is a significant outlier. On a general level, the authors conclude that fishers who report that they are not interested in leaving the occupation of fishing score higher on three traditional job satisfaction scales--basic needs, social needs and self actualization. Those who say they would leave fishing for another occupation are younger, have less fishing experience and smaller households. The latter findings are of relevance with regard to the pressing need, felt by fisheries managers, to move fishers out of the fishery. (Contains 6 figures and 11 tables.)
