India is grappling with substantial gender disparities in the labor force, particularly evident in the unorganized sector where women are often subjected to unsafe working conditions, particularly in sectors like fisheries and garment industries. Women in these roles face occupational health hazards without adequate social protection, underscoring the urgency for gender-sensitive healthcare services and structural reforms. Addressing gender blindness in the workforce is crucial to ensure the safety and well-being of women workers in India, prompting the need for comprehensive policy interventions and awareness campaigns to promote gender equality and create a conducive work environment for all.
