Abstract
Informal sector accounts for 93% of total employment, 70% of nonagricultural employment and 50% of the country’s GDP. Yet, legislation backed welfare measures largely cover the organized workers only. This paper attempts to focus on the plight of unorganised workers, initiatives taken thus far, limitations of administering these initiatives and suggests measures for identification of genuine beneficiaries and developing effective service delivery systems based on authors’ field experiences.
