This Report provides details of existence and quantification of unorganised or informal workers, defined as those who do not have employment security, work security and social security. These workers are engaged not only in the unorganised sector but in the organised sector as well. This universe of informal workers now constitutes 92 percent of the total workforce. The report has also highlighted, based on an empirical measurement, the high congruence between this segment of the workforce and 77 percent of the population in terms of being referred to as 'poor and vulnerable' section of the society.
