About us

An overwhelming majority of Indian working population is employed in unorganized sector. Of the total working population of millions, about 90.02 million 92% are employed in this sector. Women are self employed, casual, contract, temporary, seasonal, migrant workers and even as house makers. They are victims of social and economic exploitation. They have no labour law for them and if they have, it is not being implemented. They have no social security programme i.e., social insurance, provident fund, maternity benefits etc. Since they are scattered they are not identified as workers. They don’t have employer employee relationship. Existing labour laws do not cover them. As a result of this most of these are not covered by trade Unions. About 97 % women are employed in this sector. They are always undercounts as they are unorganized. The Self Employed Women Association is a labour union of poor self-employed women workers of unorganized sector. Thus for empowerment of the unorganized sector the organization began its intervention in the year 2006 with local community support and decided to bring change in lives of socially excluded communities through skill development to women and youth from the area and to empower communities specially the women to lead a better standard of life.    1 skill development   2 emploment   3 health & nutrition  4 child care  5  housing  6 self reliance  7  asset 8 income generation  9
