Abstract: The present invention relates to an intelligent computer-implemented occupational health vulnerability assessment and decision-support system (100) and method for informal sector workers. Demographic, socioeconomic, occupational, health, behavioural, environmental and healthcare-accessibility data are acquired (120), validated (122) and processed by a Health Vulnerability Index Engine (124) that computes a weighted composite score (316) from six-dimension scores (302–312). Workers are classified into Low, Moderate, High or Critical risk (404–410). A decision-support engine (128) generates personalised preventive and safety recommendations (522) and a welfare engine (130) identifies eligible government schemes. A predictive module (132), community dashboard (134) and monitoring module (136) provide future-risk estimates, aggregated intelligence and longitudinal follow-up. The invention enables early identification of vulnerable informal workers and evidence-based public-health planning.
