Over the past ten years, India has seen a rise in the internal feminisation of migrant labour. However, migration is always seen exclusively from an economic perspective and the perspective of men searching for employment. A significant portion of India's internal migrant labour force is made up of women, particularly those of working age. In India, the main cause of internal migration among rural women is their desire to find work in urban areas. In the destination region, female migrants are more at risk than their male counterparts. In the destination region, female migrants are more vulnerable than their male counterparts. The difficulties that women migrants confront, particularly those related to safety, health, and social integration, must be recognised. These difficulties include discrimination, exploitation, and restricted access to resources. Developing a more inclusive and equitable migration policy requires addressing these gender-specific issues. 32 individuals, ages 18 to 35, who were employed in Chennai's construction sector, participated in this study. This highlights how caste, class, and gender interact to influence migrant women's experiences in India. The research findings revealed that issues including inadequate housing, safety worries, and restricted access to healthcare were among the difficulties experienced by female migrants. Through recognition and resolution of these complex issues, authorities may work to create a more welcoming and encouraging environment for all internal migrant women workers in India's many industries.
