Abstract
Despite their significant contribution to the economy, only 6 % of unorganized workers avail any type of social security support. The growth of real wages of casual workers has also been relatively slow in the post-reform period. The workers of the unorganized sectors are the worst affected in the event of any kind of crisis. The fundamental socio-economic rights of domestic migrant workers were adversely affected during the lockdown, but the state response was not up to the expectation. Despite expansion in policy and programmes, India`s wage and social security system is quite vulnerable to unorganized workers. The people of our country know how to arrange the means of subsistence on their own, but if they get adequate government sponsored social assistance easily at the right time, then the difficulties related to their life will be greatly reduced.
