ABOUT THE BOOK

This edited book offers a critical analysis of the legal and socio-economic challenges faced by unorganised workers in India, especially in the context of the emerging gig economy. It has examined gaps in the existing laws, including the Code on Social Security, 2020, and drawn global comparisons with the US and EU to suggest best practices. Key topics of this book include gender issues, caste and religious discrimination, and the role of NGOs to provide social security to the workers. The book has also highlighted the Rajasthan Platform-Based Gig Workers Welfare Act, 2023, as a model for state-level reforms. This book is a valuable resource for policymakers, scholars, and those interested in labour law and social justice.
