Overview

This analysis reveals the welfare burden of informal sector workers due to policy gaps in Nigeria, suggesting enhanced social protection measures.

Key Points

  • The informal economy significantly supports welfare by providing jobs and acting as an economic shock absorber.
  • Data indicate the role of the informal sector in Nigeria's economic growth and the welfare of its citizens.
  • The study calls for government recognition and prioritization of the informal economy in development policies.
  • A more inclusive social protection framework is essential to mitigate the welfare burden on informal-sector workers.
