The Indian social security system only covers employees in the organized sector, which accounts for less than 10% of the country’s workforce. As the unorganized sector is continuously growing the Government of India has launched several social security measures related to healthcare, pension, and direct cash transfer schemes to people who do not have access to any formal scheme. As of November 2020, the Indian government is planning to bring 250 million workers from the unorganized sector under the social security system.
