Abstract

India's agriculture industry is incredibly unorganized, and labour rules protecting agricultural labourers are rarely enforced. Employers are not legally obligated to incorporate health and safety regulations into agricultural operations, which have a detrimental effect on agricultural labourers. Despite the fact that occupational dangers and health problems are major concerns in agriculture, agricultural workers are compelled to operate in environments without adequate safety and health regulations. Workers in the agricultural industry do not receive the extra advantages offered to those in the organized industries because agricultural activities are largely unorganized. Because they must also care for their families and frequently labour when they are not physically healthy, the situation of women agricultural workers is particularly dire. This article examines the occupational dangers and health problems that Indian agricultural workers confront, with a particular emphasis on the safety and health concerns that affect women agricultural workers. The Unorganised Workers Social Security Act of 2008 has been criticized for failing to specifically include agricultural workers in its pertinent sections. Other labour has also been investigated. In order to enhance the lives of agricultural workers, other labour has also been studied, and proposals have been made to draft appropriate legislation to enforce health and safety regulations in agricultural operations
