The unorganised labour sector represents a dominant share of rural employment in India, particularly in ecologically vulnerable regions. This study examines 40 respondents from Gogamukh (Dhemaji) and Laukiriguri (Chirang) in Assam to analyse occupational structure, livelihood strategies, and adaptive behaviour. The research employs statistical tools including percentage distribution, mean, standard deviation, and regression analysis. The study integrates economic theories of labour markets with Darwin’s Theory of Evolution and Newton’s Laws of Motion. The findings indicate that agricultural labour dominates, followed by fishery and traditional handloom work. Labourers adopt diversification strategies in response to environmental and economic pressures. The study concludes that adaptability, resource utilisation, and policy support are essential for sustainable livelihood development.
