This study provides a comprehensive analysis of informal workers in Thailand by utilising the 2006-2019 Thai Informal Employment Survey data. The results reveal the adverse effects of informal employment on workers’ economic and social conditions: 1) the wages gap working against informal employment, 2) a negative relationship between informal employment and wages, and 3) a positive association between informal employment and occupational risks. The analyses manifest the importance of schooling in reducing the tendency to work in the informal sector, narrowing the wages gap, and lowering occupational risks and injury severity. However, the results show no relationship between schooling and informal workers’ wages but a positive relationship between their wages and working experience.
