The informal nature of much of the employment in Sikkim might pose challenges for:

Organizing workers' unions
Enforcing labor laws
Accurate data collection on working conditions
All of the above

The correct answer is: d) All of the above.

The informal nature of much of the employment in Sikkim poses challenges for organizing workers’ unions, enforcing labor laws, and accurate data collection on working conditions.

  • Organizing workers’ unions is difficult in the informal sector because workers are often not aware of their rights or how to join a union. They may also be afraid of losing their jobs if they try to organize.
  • Enforcing labor laws is also difficult in the informal sector because it is difficult to monitor working conditions and to identify and punish employers who violate the law.
  • Accurate data collection on working conditions is also difficult in the informal sector because workers are often not registered with the government and their workplaces are not inspected.

The informal sector is a large and growing part of the economy in many countries, including Sikkim. It is important to address the challenges posed by the informal nature of employment in order to protect the rights of workers and to ensure that they have access to decent working conditions.
