The impact of Indian Labour laws on the unorganised sector: A comprehensive review

Abstract

The unorganised sector in India, comprising a significant portion of the workforce, operates with minimal regulation compared to the formal sector. This research paper critically examines the impact of Indian labour laws on the unorganised sector, analysing the efficacy of existing legal frameworks and their implementation. It discusses the challenges faced by unorganised workers, the role of government initiatives, and suggests reforms to enhance labour protection. The paper employs a comprehensive review of literature and legal provisions, supported by various academic references, to provide an in-depth understanding of the current scenario and future directions.
