23 Literature... is that a shift from the informal to formal is most helpful in the betterment of the economy. ILO retains this as their primary policy objective as a reduction in informal employment can lead to better and more decent work (Kucera and Roncolato, 2008; ILO, 2002) a study on informality is essentially to address the opportunities and incentives of informal workers and enterprises that are outside the formal structures governing taxes, workplace regulations and social protection schemes (Huitfeldt, Sida and Jutting, 2009) Higher focus on the informal sector will help study poverty and inequality, as many studies claimed strong links between informality, poverty and inequality (Chen, 2012) becomes a buffer for those who are unable to enter the formal labour market as they lose jobs or unable to find work suitable to their qualifications (ILO, 2013) 23
