1.71 cr workers from unorganised sector registered on e-Shram portal in a month: Labour Ministry
Data analysis based on the last week showed that a substantial proportion of women workers in domestic work are getting themselves registered on the portal. This is one category of occupation where women outnumber men.
Besides, women form substantial proportion of workforce in sectors like agriculture as labourers, food industries as helpers and machine operators, apparel industry as helpers and tailors and also in small scale units of tobacco/ beedi rolling and as ASHAs/ ANMs in the healthcare industry.
Therefore, it would not be wrong to assume that most vulnerable groups of women are insured under various protection schemes accruing from registration at the portal, the ministry said. Since week one, Odisha and Bihar have competed with each other to maintain the first position, it stated.

Chubb CEO Greenberg Warns Retroactive Measures Would ‘Bankrupt’ Insurance Industry
Greenberg said that a potential way to handle pandemic risks in the future would be to create a public-private partnership, where insurers could start covering that risk for a proper price and the government could take on the tail-risk exposure. That model would echo efforts by the government and insurance industry to deal with terrorism risks after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.He cautioned, however, that affordability would become a major question. Insurers will need to set prices to appropriately account for the heightened risk, but that could mean policyholders might shy away from coverage because of the higher cost.
