The document proposes a solution to organize and provide social welfare to India's large unorganized workforce. It suggests creating an independent organization called "Sangathan" comprising volunteers and representatives from unions, cooperatives, etc. Sangathan would identify priority informal sectors, encourage workers to join unions/cooperatives, ensure workers receive government benefits, and conduct performance evaluations. A digital database would be created linking informal workers to unique IDs. Local organizations would be linked to welfare policies and funds. Challenges include initial funding, establishing guidelines for local bodies, potential employer resistance, and gaining recognition for Sangathan.

Sangathan
The document proposes a solution to better organize and provide social welfare to India's large unorganized workforce. It suggests establishing an independent organization called Sangathan in each district/region. Sangathan would identify priority informal sectors, encourage workers to join unions/cooperatives, resolve disputes, ensure workers receive government benefits, and conduct periodic evaluations. A digital database linking informal workers to unique IDs would be created. Local organizations would be linked to welfare policies and accountable for benefit distribution and reporting. Challenges include adequate funding, addressing existing parallel policies, and establishing formal guidelines for local organizations.

The document discusses the informal sector in India. It notes that over 90% of India's workforce belongs to the informal sector, which accounts for about 50% of India's national product. The informal sector includes wage workers without fixed employers, casual daily laborers, domestic workers without contracts, and temporary or part-time workers. Employees are considered informal if they are not protected by labor laws, subject to income tax, or entitled to benefits like paid leave. The government has taken some steps to provide social security, welfare funds, and other programs for informal sector workers.

Over 92% of India's workforce is employed in the informal sector. This includes small self-employed businesses and casual laborers. However, most informal workers are unable to access social welfare programs due to a lack of reporting in surveys and classification of their jobs. The government needs to improve data collection on informal workers and create new programs and task forces to ensure welfare funds reach this vulnerable population. Establishing trade unions for informal sectors could also help workers unite to demand better protections and learn about available assistance programs.

This document discusses the informal sector in India. It notes that over 90% of India's labor is in the informal/unorganized sector, working in jobs like mining, rag picking, construction, domestic work, and vending. Workers in the informal sector face low incomes, lack of proper jobs, poor living conditions, and malnutrition. To address these issues, the document proposes developing the unorganized sector by decreasing poverty, improving the economy, reducing child labor, providing education, housing, and employment protections. It also suggests linking informal workers to programs through identification cards and expanding social security and provident funds.

The document discusses the challenges faced by workers in India's large informal sector. It notes that 90% of India's workforce is engaged in the informal sector, which contributes over 47% to the country's GDP. However, informal workers lack social security, decent working conditions, and other protections. The document proposes establishing a national body to help organize and support informal sector workers. It would provide skills training, infrastructure, healthcare, loans, and help market informal sector goods and services. Setting up the body could help lift millions of informal workers out of poverty by giving them access to resources and collective bargaining power.

Public Sector Vs Private Sector
This document compares and contrasts the public and private sectors. The public sector aims to provide services to the public and is funded by taxes, while the private sector prioritizes profits. Leadership in the public sector focuses on long-term strategy and building consensus, while private sector leadership has clearer financial goals. Organizationally, the public sector typically has a more bureaucratic and hierarchical structure, while the private sector structure is flatter and allows for more autonomy. Cultural differences also exist between sectors in areas like career development, benefits, pay scales, and employee turnover. Overall, the document outlines the key distinctions between public and private sector goals, management, structure, and culture.

Employers' Organizations (EOs) represent and defend employers on labor issues. Their primary objectives are to promote employers' interests, study labor policies and relations, and offer advice. They also provide secondary services like training, research reports, and improving workplace safety. EOs operate at local, regional, and central levels. Membership is voluntary and EOs represent employer interests on statutory bodies and make submissions to authorities on legislation. However, EOs have limited finances and need to upgrade services to members to raise more funds.
Need for wage policy and relationship between wages and employment
The document discusses the need for wage policy and the relationship between wages and employment in India. It provides context on wage concepts like minimum wage, living wage, and fair wage. It outlines several reasons for the need of a wage policy in India, including low pay, growing income inequalities, high unemployment, and regional disparities. The objectives of wage policy are also discussed. The relationship between wage policy and employment is complex, as employment is affected by many other economic and social factors besides wages. The document then examines India's post-independence wage policies and laws. It also discusses gender discrimination prevalent in India's wage structure and policies.

1) The informal sector in India consists of unincorporated enterprises with less than 10 workers and includes activities like agriculture, small shops, and home-based work. It contributes over 80% of India's workforce.
2) The document proposes plans to help informal sector workers in both agro-based activities like farming, and non-agro based activities like daily wage work. It suggests organizing farmers to sell directly to authorities and providing vendors with storage vans.
3) For non-agro workers, the plan includes call centers that provide temporary work. Implementing the plans would require local recruitment, oversight committees, and funding from various sources like the government and donors.
Labour issues in Indian Labour Market
Indian labor Market :Consists of 430 million workers in 2004-05, growing 2% annually, with a stable worker-population ratio of 40%.
Lower level of women’s participation in workforce (28%) – perhaps an underestimate.
Low level of open unemployment (3.1%) – high level of disguised unemployment (or under-employment), mostly in rural areas and in agriculture.
Child labour’s share in workforce declining – yet quite large in absolute numbers, at 13 million in 2001.
OorjaDaksha
The document proposes a plan to formalize India's large informal economy by providing social and financial security to 500 million informal sector workers over 10 years. It involves identifying and registering informal enterprises and workers, requiring minimum wages and employment standards, sharing costs of permanent employees, and expanding social programs like health insurance, housing, and skills training. Metrics to measure the plan's impact include increasing per capita income, the GDP, tax base, and reducing poverty through boosting agricultural and industrial productivity. Challenges include ensuring political and social acceptance, private investment, and the technical capabilities needed for large-scale data management.
Labour reforms ultimate
Labor reforms are aimed at protecting workers and improving working conditions. The reforms led to banning child labor, providing health benefits and job security. India has a large informal labor market that lacks protections. Recent labor reforms seek to formalize the labor market through measures like portable universal account numbers for provident funds, apprenticeship programs, online compliance portals, and restricting arbitrary inspections. The goal is to make hiring and firing more flexible while still providing worker benefits to promote growth and employment.
Unorganised sector
The concept of the informal/unorganized sector began receiving attention in the 1970s when the ILO initiated studies to identify and examine this sector. Since then, numerous studies have explored aspects like its size, employment, and relationship to the formal sector. In 1987, an ILO report discussed the role of the informal sector in employment, lack of protections for workers, and potential for standards. India's economy is characterized by a vast majority—93%—of the workforce employed in the unorganized sector. This sector includes small/marginal farmers, construction workers, artisans, fishermen, and more. It is defined by ease of entry, small scale, use of indigenous resources, and lack of regulation.

It proposes several recommendations to better support these vulnerable workers, including: 1) Strictly executing existing laws and programs through innovative methods; 2) Employing unemployed youth to help organize the informal sector; and 3) Conducting a proper census of informal workers to accurately account for their contribution to GDP and better target policies to support their development. The goal is to leverage existing resources to improve conditions for informal workers through appropriate program implementation.
Gendered Inequalities in the Informal Economy in Masvingo Urban of Zimbabwe
Gendered Inequalities in the Informal Economy in Masvingo Urban of ZimbabweBusiness, Management and Economics Research
This paper focuses on the gendered inequalities in the informal economy of Zimbabwe with specific reference to
Masvingo urban in Zimbabwe. The informal economy in Zimbabwe is made up of unregistered and unrecorded
statistics and therefore is not registered, supported or regulated by the Government. Women trading in the informal
economy have little or no access to organised markets, credit institutions, formal education and training institutions,
public services and amenities. Qualitative research methodology was used for the research. A case study research of
Masvingo urban in Zimbabwe was used, while data was collected using key informant interviews, semi-structured
interviews, observations and documentary search. The findings of the study indicates that women in the informal
economy are affected by environmental, political, economic, social and personal constraints. Women are
concentrated in this sector due to the value system in the society; fewer skills required for the jobs in this sector,
technological advancement, and the traditional roles assigned to them. The study concludes that gender-sensitive
macro-economic policies are an important enabler to address gender inequalities in the informal economy as they
shape the economic environment for women’s empowerment. The study recommends that local authorities should
come up gender-responsive policies to enable women to operate in an environment that has decent infrastructure for
vending, free from police and sexual harassment and adequate security.Ignited-Minds
The document proposes an organizational model to provide social welfare and protections to India's large informal workforce. A centralized organization would be formed with subdivisions for different sectors like agriculture, transportation, construction, etc. Each sector would have governing committees to oversee operations and ensure workers receive benefits like minimum wages, pensions, healthcare, education, and loans. The model aims to improve living standards for India's 437 million informal workers and reduce poverty, crimes, and inequality across the country. Implementing such a large organization would face challenges in management, fundraising, and ensuring effective communication between all levels.
The Situation of Labour Relations in India
This document summarizes labour relations in India. It discusses key topics like the actors in the Indian labour system (government, employees, employers), important labour laws, major trade unions, current issues (strikes, child labour, migrant workers), and implications for managers. Some key points are:
- Labour relations are highly dependent on a country's governance and laws.
- India has a large unorganized workforce of around 90% and rigid labour laws that are challenges.
- Major trade unions aim to improve conditions for workers but are not well unified.
- Issues include many days lost to strikes, high rates of child labour, and poor conditions for migrant workers.
- Labour disputes can negatively impact company production, efficiency
Problems of unorganized sector
The unorganized sector in India consists of traditional and modern small business units that make up the majority of the food processing market share. Around 93% of India's workforce is employed in the unorganized sector as self-employed or informal workers. This sector includes small farmers, agricultural laborers, construction workers, weavers, fishermen, and domestic workers. Problems faced by workers in the unorganized sector include low wages, lack of benefits like paid leave, job insecurity, and little government protection or regulation of employment terms.
National wage policy
The document discusses the need for a national wage policy in India. It notes that while minimum wage legislation exists, wage fixation is done at the state level, and execution of minimum wages faces many issues. The Second National Commission on Labour recommended appointing an expert committee to analyze all factors and set a national wage policy. The objectives of a national wage policy would be to ensure minimum wages allow meeting basic needs across regions and sectors, maximize employment opportunities, eliminate poverty, reduce wage differentials, standardize wages in similar industries, and link wage increases to productivity increases. Revision of wages should be higher than GDP growth but lower than inflation to maintain real wages while allowing some return to the economy.

The document discusses several strategies to boost agricultural productivity in India. It notes that India supports 17% of the world's population with only 2.4% of the world's land area. Productivity has increased since the first five-year plan in 1950, though challenges remain around water scarcity and post-harvest food losses.

2) The cooperatives would practice diversified and integrated farming, use advanced techniques, and establish processing, storage, transportation and marketing infrastructure.
3) This would provide jobs, skills and higher incomes while reducing risks for farmers and checking migration by improving opportunities locally.

Indian cities will need to accommodate over 700 million new urban residents by 2030, requiring massive investments in housing, transportation, and other infrastructure. Current trends show supply falling far short of demand across all urban services. An estimated $1.2 trillion investment is needed to meet projected urban demand, requiring annual spending to ramp up to $90 billion by 2030. National abundance rather than scarcity can help address poverty, crime and other social issues by ensuring all citizens have access to necessary resources through efficient use of technology in areas like energy, housing, transportation and infrastructure planning.
GSTians

It also proposes biometric authentication of voters using Aadhar fingerprints to prevent bogus voting and automate polling tasks. Additionally, it recommends a qualifying examination for candidates to prevent illiterate individuals from running and introducing defense or presidential rule in the 3 months before elections to ensure free and fair voting. Finally, it proposes limiting candidates to one term in office to provide more opportunities and prevent irregularities.

The document proposes solutions to address the lack of social welfare and protections for informal sector workers in India. It suggests establishing organizations at the central, state, and district levels to coordinate efforts to provide financial support through loans and insurance, improve access to education and healthcare, ensure adequate wages, and collect funds from workers, private firms, and the government to support the proposed programs. The solutions aim to improve living standards and working conditions for the large informal workforce in India through coordinated action across multiple levels of government and society.
RapidSquirrels
This document proposes solutions to provide social welfare and security to informal sector workers in India. It identifies key problems like lack of identification, social security, financial inclusion, and skills/awareness. Solutions proposed include a unified Aadhar account system to identify and track workers, comprehensive social security schemes like HELP, a new ministry and financial institution for the unorganized sector, and skills training programs. Regulations are also suggested around implementation, including associations for different worker groups, and a national social security commission. Overall the solutions aim to identify informal workers, provide core benefits and protections, increase opportunities through skills and financial tools, and properly regulate the social security system.
NAWABI-HELLBOYS
This document proposes a cooperative strategy to organize informal sector workers in India. It notes that over 90% of India's workforce is informal and lacks social security protections. The strategy involves forming union-cooperatives composed of self-help groups that would interface with employers and the government to provide workers with placement services, minimum wages, safety equipment, healthcare, education, skills training, insurance, loans, and a political voice. Funding would come from the government, NGOs, and profits shared among the self-help groups. The goal is to improve conditions for informal workers while integrating them into the mainstream economy and society.
Protecting the vulnerable: Providing social welfare to informal sector workers
The document proposes solutions to provide social welfare and security to informal sector workers in India. It identifies key problems like lack of identification, financial exclusion, and fragmented nature of informal workers. It proposes establishing Aadhar accounts for unique identification and registration. This would help classify workers and deliver social security benefits directly. Comprehensive social security schemes like HELP are suggested to provide health, education, life and pension cover. Regulations and specialized institutions are recommended to implement and monitor the schemes effectively.
5GLITTERS
Unorganized workers in India's informal sector make up over 90% of the labor force but lack basic protections and social security. They face numerous challenges including poverty, lack of bargaining power, gender inequalities, and occupational hazards. Providing social security, healthcare access, skill training, living wages, safe working conditions, and a mechanism to formalize informal businesses could help empower unorganized workers and boost India's economy. Raising awareness, enforcing labor laws, and improving access to education, financial services, and infrastructure in slums are also important to alleviate challenges faced by India's vast informal workforce.
Prayas
The document discusses recommendations for a universal social security system for unorganized workers in India. It proposes a single window architecture governed by a national agency. Key elements include: registration of workers using biometric IDs; awareness campaigns and surveys; establishment of workers' facilitation centers for enrollment, grievance redressal, and monetary transactions; and extending health, accident, and pension benefits to all unorganized workers through the smart card platform. Challenges in implementation such as costs and traditional mindsets are also addressed.
cognizanties
This document proposes a digitized model for providing social welfare to informal workers in India. It notes that over 94% of India's workforce is informal. The proposed model would register informal workers through a unique ID and bank account. Funds would be distributed through an "Informal Sector Machine" (ISM) network similar to ATMs. A management team consisting of NGO members, social workers, and IT graduates would oversee fair distribution of government welfare funds to registered informal workers. The digitized system aims to provide regular work, proper wages, and access to healthcare, pension, and other benefits while minimizing corruption. Implementation challenges include gaining acceptance from informal workers and cooperation from banks to use the ISM network.
STARI
The document discusses providing social welfare protections to workers in India's large informal sector. It notes that around 42% of India's rural population is employed informally with low and unstable incomes and lack of protections. It proposes solutions like skills training, social security programs, improving local economies and working conditions, and increasing awareness. Challenges to implementing these solutions include acquiring funds for training programs, ensuring social security reaches the needy, promoting local goods over imports, and sustained youth involvement. The impact could be socially and economically enriching workers, creating more aware citizens, and strengthening local communities and the national economy.
panch-patriots
The document proposes a model for providing social welfare to workers in the informal sector in India. It suggests establishing a new Ministry of Labor and Informal Sectors along with several subordinate offices to address issues like healthcare, education, financial support, and social security for informal workers. The model aims to improve conditions for India's large informal workforce through coordinated efforts across new and existing government organizations.
TeamAcademy2013
The document discusses policies to help uplift India's vulnerable informal labor sector. It notes that over 94% of India's workforce is in the unorganized sector with low wages and productivity. It proposes establishing transition centers that provide basic facilities, skill training, employment links, and financial services to register informal workers. These centers would create a network across cities to give workers a sense of identity and access to social programs. Challenges include categorizing diverse jobs and securing land, but such interventions could recognize informal workers' contributions and improve their living standards.
Shared Prosperity through Strategic Community Investment: An IFC perspective ...
The document discusses IFC's perspective on strategic community investment to promote shared prosperity. IFC is the private sector arm of the World Bank Group and aims to reduce poverty through private sector development. The document outlines IFC's approach to strategic community investment, which involves voluntary contributions by companies to help communities address development priorities in a way that also supports business objectives. It provides examples of effective community investment programs and tools used by IFC to evaluate programs and their financial and social impacts, including a financial valuation tool and geomapping tool. The document concludes with good practice principles for strategic community investment.
SAMRIDHI
1) India has a workforce of 487 million people, with 94% or 457 million working in the informal sector, mostly in agriculture.
2) The informal sector lacks social protections like labor laws, income taxation, and employment benefits that are provided in the formal sector.
3) There is a need to reform laws to better protect informal workers through a unified social security law, enforcing minimum wage and other labor rights, and increasing vocational training opportunities.
Ppt of wage policy
This document discusses factors to consider when formulating a wage policy. It covers definitions of key wage concepts like minimum wage, living wage, and fair wage. It also outlines influences on wages like the labor market, cost of living, unions, and government legislation. The objectives of wage administration include recruiting employees, controlling payroll costs, motivating performance, and maintaining fair wage standards. Wage policies aim to guide wage structures and determine relative shares for workers, management, and other stakeholders in an industry or economy.
Anshuman5Maverick
This document discusses providing social welfare and securities to workers in the informal sector in India. It notes that the informal sector currently makes up 92% of employment and 50% of GDP. It proposes establishing welfare funds for informal workers that would provide benefits like pensions, healthcare reimbursement, accident insurance, and education assistance. Challenges to implementing this include corruption, unemployment, data collection issues working with unions, and liberalization policies. Establishing these funds could help reduce vulnerability for informal workers and decrease the size of the informal sector over time.
PlanningPowerUnion
This document proposes policies to invest in and support India's large informal sector workforce. It discusses interactions with NGOs and informal workers to understand their issues and expectations. Five key policy proposals are outlined: 1) A specialized identification card for informal workers to access benefits like pension; 2) District and zone-specific policies tailored to local job types; 3) Reviving employment exchanges to register and track informal jobs; 4) Registering informal sector unions to better represent workers; 5) Providing paid maternity for female informal workers. The document argues that investing in the quality of life and productivity of informal workers, who comprise most of the workforce, will boost India's overall economic output.
Sme developing role
The document discusses the need for Pakistan to develop a comprehensive SME policy and implementation framework to support SME development. It notes that while SMEDA has made progress, a single organization alone cannot address all the issues facing SMEs. A coherent policy is needed that defines the roles of different public and private sector institutions and addresses key areas like the business environment, access to finance, skills development, and entrepreneurship promotion. The document outlines some of the specific policy measures and principles that should be included in a national SME policy and implementation plan to better support SME growth and job creation in Pakistan.
LJIETSTAR
The document discusses challenges faced by India's large informal workforce and efforts made by the government to address these challenges. It notes that India will have 300 million new job entrants by 2025 who will likely join the informal sector due to lack of employment opportunities. Currently, the informal sector faces issues like lack of social security, low wages, gender discrimination, and poor working conditions. The government has introduced various schemes to help informal workers, but implementation remains a challenge. Moving forward, experts recommend increasing employment, formalizing the informal economy, extending social protection, and boosting productivity through training and development. A new department focused solely on the informal sector could help connect workers to skills training, unique digital identities, suitable jobs, minimum wages,
INTREPID
This document discusses formalizing and improving conditions for workers in the informal sector in India. It notes that nearly 98% of India's population works in the informal sector. It proposes several policies and initiatives to help support these workers such as measuring and analyzing informal sector statistics, providing training programs, improving infrastructure and living conditions, enhancing health care access, reforming legal frameworks, promoting job creation, and enhancing social protection schemes. The overall aim is to better regulate and support the large informal workforce in India through collaborative efforts between the government and non-governmental organizations.
Wage policy
This document discusses wage policy and compensation differentials within and between industries. It begins by defining key concepts like minimum wage, living wage, and fair wage. It then discusses factors that influence wages both externally like labor markets and cost of living, and internally like job evaluation and employee performance. Different wage payment systems like piece rate and time rate are also covered. The document also discusses principles of wage administration, relevant wage laws in India, and recommendations of wage policy committees. It defines compensation and differentiates between direct and indirect compensation. Finally, it discusses reasons for compensation differentials both between industries and within the same industry based on factors like experience, skills, training, work conditions and department.
Socialis-Adiutores
The document proposes a Voluntary Enforcement Policy (VEA) to provide social welfare and security to informal sector workers in India. The key aspects of the VEA are:
1. Educational institutions like colleges and universities would adopt sectors and operate door-to-door to register informal workers, provide them a social security number, and help access government benefits.
2. Students would participate through legal aid, medical services, etc. as part of a mandatory academic curriculum.
3. The VEA would have divisions for financial/banking, education, healthcare, and legal aid run by students, professionals, and government officials working collectively.
4. Challenges may include limited resources but can be

Boosting_skillsetsteamnbd
This document proposes a 3-tier skill development framework to address India's shortage of 1.2 crore jobs per year for the next decade. It involves (1) 6-month skill courses for unemployed graduates run through public-private partnerships, (2) mandatory career counseling and 100-day apprenticeships for secondary students, and (3) extended skill and apprenticeship programs for school dropouts aged 14+. This framework aims to provide industry-relevant skills while reducing costs through private sector involvement. It could help direct workers towards new job markets and improve productivity across the economy. Challenges include gaining political and institutional support, but the document argues these can be addressed through awareness campaigns and leveraging existing IT infrastructure.

The team aims to build on these ideas to improve the system and create a more open and reliable PDS for people across India.
Manthan
Primary education in India faces several challenges, including low enrollment and attendance rates, high dropout rates before 5th grade, and poor quality of education especially in rural areas and for girls. The government has implemented various programs to address these issues, such as the District Primary Education Program, Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan, and Operation Blackboard. New initiatives like the Right to Education Act aim to increase access to private schools for underprivileged children. However, improving teacher training and classroom practices will be needed to truly enhance educational quality and outcomes for Indian children.

Drinking water is essential for life but can become contaminated through various sources, posing health risks. Sanitation through hygienic prevention of contact with waste is important for public health. In India, many lack access to clean drinking water and proper sanitation, which can have serious health repercussions like diarrhea, skin diseases, and various infections. The government has undertaken programs to improve rural sanitation and clean water access, but challenges remain in fully achieving these goals.

It defines empowerment as gaining power, authority, and influence through having decision-making ability, access to resources and information, positive thinking, and skills. It notes that empowering women is key to global development goals. While women faced social evils historically like sati and child marriage, independence brought efforts to uplift women through education. Literacy and sex ratios have risen in recent decades. Women now participate in all sectors of society, showing their empowerment has occurred through increased participation and access to resources leading to improved status. The empowerment of women is important for families and productivity.
Tourism_and_Border_Trade
The document discusses key challenges facing the North Eastern states of India, including insurgency, lack of infrastructure, and poor governance. It argues that developing tourism and border trade could help address high unemployment and low GDP in the region by generating jobs and revenue. Specifically, the region has great potential for eco and adventure tourism due to its natural beauty and cultural heritage. Border trade could revive local industries and provide access to new markets, fulfilling the goals of India's "Look East" policy. However, more work is still needed to improve infrastructure and overcome security challenges and isolationist mindsets that have hindered economic development.
Striving_towards_a_cleaner_nation
Rural India faces significant challenges in providing safe drinking water and sanitation to its large population.

Community Skills Building Workshop | PMI Silver Spring Chapter | June 12, 2024Hector Del Castillo, CPM, CPMM
Time for an overhaul. Trainers and trainees unite!
The Silver Spring Leadership has spent the last six months collecting thoughts, ideas, and feedback on what our membership wants from the Chapter to help them on their PMI journey.
We've listened and now we're hosting a workshop during our June virtual meeting to give you our pitch and collect final feedback. Before we design our new page of resources we want to hear from:
Local, certified PMI trainers who teach PMI courses. We want to highlight you and provide your resources to our members.
Members and non-members who are new to PMI course work for certifications, or looking to start. We want to hear if our solution tackle the challenges we've heard you're facing.
Three of PMISSC's membership advocates will lead three discussions on the offerings we're rolling out and facilitate a discussion on your thoughts and desires in these areas. Register for the topic you would like to participate in.

- 2. 92 percent of the 317 million workforce is employed in the Unorganized Sector DEFINITION The unorganized sector is defined by many statutes and laws as an enterprise owned by individuals or self employed workers or an enterprise employing the workers the number for which is less than ten. FACTS & FORECASTS • In 2012, India’s unorganized sector created 62 percent of the Gross Domestic Product, 50 percent of the Gross National Savings and 40 percent of the National Exports. • The backbone of Indian economy, the agricultural sector has 99.42% of people employed in unorganised sector. • The manufacturing and service sector contributes 81% and 73% respectively to the total workforce employed in informal sector. • It is expected that with current economic scenario the share of informal sector will be maintained at around 93.6 % by 2016-17 98% 95% 93% 92% 49% 28% 12% Personal service activities Communications Sanitation Transportation & railway Freight & cargo Education & training Computer technology Share of unorganized sector – Service Industry (2006) 98% 94% 92% 90% 19% 18% 13% Wood and wood products Furniture Wearing apparel Tobacco products Basic metals Electronics & Communication Accounting and computing Share of unorganized sector - Manufacturing Industry (2005) Source: Sector Analysis Ejaz Ghani Source: Sector Analysis Ejaz Ghani

There is a need to tap this vast potential of Informal sector which can be achieved only through organizing the sector.
- 4. Non-homogeneity of the presence of Unorganized in different sectors leads to different social security needs • Workers employed in a wide range of economic activities ranging from street vendors, casual workers in a tea shop, beedi workers to contract laborers in a factory • Different economic activities at different levels of technology and productivity and thus require different levels of wages • Affordability and the paying capacity of the employers (depending upon different sectors) is also a determining factor of social security needs CONSTRUCTION WORKER UNION LIFE SECURITY Employment securityHousing security FOOD SECURITY HOME BASED WORKER OLD AGE SECURITY Health security Accident security
- 5. GENERATE DATABASE OF UNORGANIZED SECTOR BY LINKING IT TO UID The broad level policy framework to meet the needs for all the different sectors within the ambit of unorganised sector. Digitalised data which is easy to analyse and manage Resolve the problem of shadow and bogus ration cards faced presently by the PDS to avoid duplication BUILD MULTI- ORGANIZATIONAL FRAMEWORK Different organizations such as trade unions, co- operatives, associations, NGOs and labour boards will be used to mobilize and help unorganized sector LINK LOCAL LEVEL ORGANIZATIONS TO WELFARE POLICIES Transfer of benefits and funds from state to the organizations Maintain and report the accounts of the welfare services to the government Periodic evaluation of the performance gap Based on experience and feedback introduce the requisite modifications PERIODIC EVALUATION AND SUITABLE MODIFICATIONS
- 6. Create an independent and participative functional body, free from bureaucratic limitations to assist the government in its vision of organizing the unorganized : “SANGATHAN” FRAMEWORK RESPONSIBILITIES IMPLEMENTATION • "Organizing the unorganized" being proposed as a state prerogative, appointed by state • Volunteer size will depend upon the economic scenario of the District/ Village/State varying from 20 to 50 • Sangathan will be a constitution of mainly intellectual youth of India like professionals and MBA graduates • Representation from unions, co- operatives, employers, NGO’s will be there Interns and volunteers Professional Bodies eg. ICAI, ICWA etc.. Managerial employees Trade Unions, Association s, Co- operatives, Welfar e funds, NGOs MBA graduates Public Service commission officers Researchers & Field Experts
- 7. FRAMEWORK RESPONSIBILITIES IMPLEMENTATION • Identifying the priority informal sector in the area of operation • Creating awareness about various policy reforms of the government, existing and as per the solution proposed • Encouraging informal workers to join existing Trade Unions or Co -operative societies or to form one in case not present in that district • Facilitate formation of such local bodies and ensuring their registration with the government which make them eligible for all the benefits of the governmental policies and schemes • Settling disputes between employers or employees or Local bodies • Ensuring the workers get full benefit of the schemes and policies designed for them • Measuring and evaluating the performance of local bodies and conducting performance audits Create an independent and participative functional body, free from bureaucratic limitations to assist the government in its vision of organizing the unorganized : “SANGATHAN”
- 8. FRAMEWORK RESPONSIBILITIES IMPLEMENTATION Monitoring, performance evaluation and regular assistance Proper representation in the policy framework and regular assistance Create or facilitate creation of priority Local Bodies Educate , encourage about the benefits of formalization Sangathan will identify the focus informal sector in the district Create an independent and participative functional body, free from bureaucratic limitations to assist the government in its vision of organizing the unorganized : “SANGATHAN”
- 9. Expenditure Revenue Sangathan contributes ₹150 Cr to the corpus of Government with just ₹1 per worker The revenue generation (assumptions) • Insignificant charges taken from workers • Workforce targeted to be 5% of the total informal • Minimum 100 days employment to be given. ₹1 to be charged for each day of employment
- 10. Challenges of the solution proposed • Funding Generating the requisite monetary resources for providing the securities to the workers • Parallel policies Certain existing policies will deteriorate the penetration of the suggested policy Establishment of formal structure and guidelines for local organizations Setting up sector specific guidelines for establishment, election and allocation purposes of local level organizations • Resistance from employers With the increase in worker unions employers might face operational hardships which may become a reason for their resistance • Recognition of “Sangathan” Various actors like workers, employers, NGOs might not recognize the autonomy of Sangathan as an independent body. It will face a huge task of marketing itself and garnering confidence of the above mentioned
