Abstract

This study explores the legal and constitutional framework that protects the rights and interests of workers in Tamil Nadu, India's unorganized sectors. This study aims to clarify the changing situation of labor protection in Tamil Nadu's unorganized sectors by thoroughly examining pertinent constitutional provisions, state and federal labor legislation, court rulings, and policy efforts. The particular difficulties faced by employees in industries including small-scale manufacturing, construction, domestic work, and agriculture are given particular consideration. In order to address the socioeconomic vulnerabilities of workers in the unorganized sector, the study looks at important legislative measures such as welfare boards, social security programs, and minimum wage regulations. It also looks at how well legal aid initiatives, enforcement strategies, and awareness campaigns function to guarantee that labor laws are applied correctly and to give workers broader access to the legal system. With implications for policy formation and advocacy efforts aimed at improving the well-being of vulnerable workers, this study adds to the ongoing conversation on labor rights and social justice in Tamil Nadu's unorganized sectors by critically examining the current legal framework and pinpointing areas for improvement. Using the convenient sampling approach, the researcher has adhered to the empirical research. The research's sample size is 200.Google was used to collect data from within and around Egmore, Chennai.
