Sectoral Diagnostics of Informality in the Transport Sector

Collaborating Partner : International Labour Organization (ILO)

The main objective of the study is to quantify and examine the characteristics, drivers (both sector-specific and general), and circumstances of informality, in addition to identifying the (dis)incentives that have a bearing on the formalisation process of informal economic units in the transport sector and workers therein. More specifically, it will quantify extent, nature, and composition of informality within transportation sector; identify main drivers and incentives of formalisation; identify main actors involved in formalisation process in the sector; and identify and assess current policy approaches on formalisation and their impacts on transition to formality for informal economic units and workers (specifically women) in the transport sector.
