Workers in the informal economy are subject to unsafe working conditions, sometimes sexual harassment, child labor and other forms of abuse and exploitation. Most of their jobs usually do not require any qualifications. Therefore, these workers do not have sufficient skills or opportunities to be trained. As for the income they earn from their jobs with long working hours, it is uncertain, irregular and lower than those who work in the formal economy. Because they are not known, registered or protected by labor and social protection legislation, these workers cannot defend their fundamental rights. They always work under fear and pressure, which makes it difficult for them to enjoy themselves and practice their business
