Abstract

Workers have various welfare needs at various phases in their lives. In terms of time, age, culture, social and ethical standards, etc., welfare is a relative concept. According to this study’s findings, younger employees should focus on organizational relationships, psychological stress, and occupation security, and experienced employees’ workload consideration and work consummation should be there to enhance their sentiment of well-being. The purpose of this study explore the need for safety for migrant labor. This study demonstrated that unsafe working circumstances exist in India which is due to lax safety regulations and a high workload in the building construction sector. It also appears to have a significant impact on safety performance. This study’s findings have implications for the legal and regulatory practices followed for the safety of migrant labor. The construction sector must routinely examine its safety education initiatives. Originality/value: The paper contributes to the academic discussion about the Safety of Migrant Labours.
