Abstract
Heavy rains followed by floods caused unprecedented loss of agriculture and infrastructure in central and lower districts of Sindh in August and September, 2011. Beside livestock homes and other pieces of valuable property were washed away or severely damaged by the flood primarily due to overflow of drain. Including others brick kiln workers bore majors losses as they were/are most vulnerable segment in Sindh. These workers have social and state supports in any disaster as there is no mechanism of social security in place to less the difficulties of these two group. Subsides announced by the government normally do not reach these because laws which regulated the bilateral relations of brick kiln owners and brick kiln workers are not implemented in letter and spirit . this paper is based on empirical evidence.
