The present research paper is an attempt to procure information regarding awareness of the rights of women working in the unorganised sector of the economy. 100 women from the unorganised sector in the Vaishali District of the State of Bihar were selected and information regarding enactments and their rights under the same was procured through interviews. Analysis of the data revealed a minimal level of information regarding enactments pertaining to women working in the unorganised sector. In summary, even though these women workers were financially capable yet it could not be conclusively said that they are empowered.
