Which of the following is correct about unorganised sector work in India?

Lack of proper wages and other working conditions.

The correct answer is Option (3) → Lack of proper wages and other working conditions.

Work in the unorganised sector in India is generally characterised by:

• Irregular and low wages without standard pay structures.

• Lack of job security and absence of benefits like paid leave, medical insurance, or pensions.

• Poor working conditions, often without proper safety measures.

• A large number of people are actually employed in this sector, contrary to the first option.

• Work here is often dependent on personal relations and informal arrangements, not fully independent of them.

• It is not only for women or unskilled labourers—it includes men and skilled workers too, though they still face informality and insecurity.
