Abstract: This work examines the status of Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work (FPRW) in the informal economy in India and locates the gaps and challenges in ratifying the ILO Conventions 87, 98, 138 and 182. The study also tries to identify various gaps in the existing data base of the informal sector regarding the four ratified fundamental conventions (Conventions 29, 105, 100, and 111). In short, based on the recent NSSO data on employment, the present study attempts a detailed analysis of FPRW and highlights the trend and challenges that need to be addressed in a systematic way.
