In India, the movement of workers from one State to other is common. This is due to the fact that workers migrate to fulfill their financial requirement and for good living. But after migration to place of destination they face various problem and exploitation. Therefore, for the protection of migrant labour Central Government enacted Inter-State Migrant Workmen (Regulation of Employment and Conditions of Service) Act, 1979. The provisions of the Inter-State Migrant Workmen (Regulation of Employment and Conditions of Service) Act, 1979 does provide good provisions for the protection of migrant workers from the possible exploitation at the hands of contractors and employers for the reason of their weak bargaining power and settlement in the new environment. It also provides for extending some more benefits to such workers looking at their dislocation from home places. But all this has failed to yield any results for the present study on Alang ship breaking yard is an indication of the national scenario. The aim of the present paper is to detail with the problem faced by migrant workers in Alang ship breaking yard and to find why ISMW Act, 1979 fails to achieve the goal.
