Unorganised workers are those workers who are employed in the unorganised sector. In India, the primary sector activities specifically agriculture comprises the largest proportion of unorganised workers. This is because disguised unemployment is rampant in this sector. It hires people without the necessity of particular skills and the hiring is not a constant feature. Farmers tend to work on their own along with the help of their families and hire labourers as and when required. Also, because of the seasonal nature of agriculture, the hiring is not on a year-round basis but mostly during the cropping season, and the rest of the time these workers are either idle or working as construction workers, etc.
