要約:The conditions of the workers in the beedi industry all over the country are deplorable and reports in this journal have highlighted the miserable lot of beedi workers in specific areas of Maharashtra, Karna-taka and West Bengal. This paper attempts a quantitative analysis of the economic conditions of beedi workers in Kerala. It considers various aspects like load of work, wage and non-wage benefits, savings and indebtedness and the occupational hazards of beedi workers. The paper also touches upon the impact of existing labour legislation covering this category of workers, and the tendency of the industry in Kerala to move into states where legislation governing beedi labour is considered favourable
