The collective efforts of unions, cooperatives, NGOs and most of all, the unorganized workers themselves, backed by the work of NCEUS and the recommendations of NAC-1, resulted in Parliament passing the Unorganized Workers’ Social Security Act (UWSSA), 2008. However, three years since then, the Central Government has not formulated and notified a minimum social security package for all workers in the unorganized sector. With the exception of the Rashtriya Swasthya Bima Yojana (RSBY), which covers close to 90 million people today, little has been done to extend other benefits of social security to the vast numbers of the working poor.
