Abstract

Human history has witnessed the phenomenon of migration in all the spheres of life for the purpose of better livelihoods. Migration occurs when one region doesn‟t support the requisites of the population and in turn makes their inhabitants move to another region to access the opportunities. It is both a new and old human practice which has taken place at every decade and every rule since human civilisation. Rural to rural, rural-to-urban, urban-to-rural and urban-to urban migrations have taken place whenever the basic requirements of the individuals have not met by their respective areas. In the present time, migration has achieved the status equal to any other human problems (Weiner, 1989). Various cultural, economic and social factors influence this process of mitigation which differs for men, women and from one region to another (Srivastava, 2003). Migration carries itself with the bundle of related problems which can have an impact on the physical wellbeing of the individuals (Adsul, 2011). The empirical paper on the Social Security Concerns of the Migrant Labourers at Fisheries Sector portrays the social security concerns of the migrated labourers available at Mangalore Fishing Harbour situated at Bunder. It highlights employment prospect along with high wages as a key factor for their migration. The plight of the labourers due to the absence of social security measures is narrated and the suggestions for their improvement are also attempted.
