Model Answer

Organised Sector: Enterprises registered with the government, following fixed rules and regulations (working hours, pay, leave). Workers enjoy job security, fixed salaries, and benefits like provident fund and paid leave.
Examples: Government school teacher, bank employee.

Unorganised Sector: Small, unregistered enterprises not bound by government regulations. Workers have irregular earnings, no job security, and no additional benefits; they are often exploited.
Examples: Street vendor, construction labourer.

Difference in work experience: Organised sector workers have fixed hours, regular salaries, and social security benefits, whereas unorganised sector workers face uncertain employment, low wages, long hours, and no legal protection.
