Abstract
The situation of informal workers
in India remains precarious.
The rigid boundaries defining
what is a formal sector enterprise
not only leave many outside
but even in the formal sector
casualization is rampant
since the costs of employing
workers on a regular basis in a
formal sector are higher than
having contract labor. The recent
troubles at the Maruti Plant
in Manesar (Haryana) owed
something to the conflict between
the rights of casual contract
labor as against the regular
labor, argues the author.
