Answer:
Some measures which can be taken to protect workers in the unorganized sector can be
(i) Strict enforcement of the mandatory registration of all employers of more than 9 persons, by activating the enforcement teams to visit all such employers and get them registered. Then their employees will become eligible for benefits like Provident Fund, Gratuity etc. Presently there is virtually no enforcement.
(ii) They should be covered for loss of life or disability insurance by the public sector insurance companies with payment of a nominal periodic premium.
(iii) They should be given subsidized skill up gradation training so that with the passage of time, they can improve their income by taking up trades that are currently in demand.
