Five ways to protect the rights of migrant workers in irregular situations

Описание: People have migrated across borders and regions for centuries. There are many reasons why people leave their own countries but a major one is the search of decent work. This includes many migrants who move outside regular migration channels, which leaves them vulnerable to exclusion and exploitation. The “ILO Compendium on Protecting the Rights of Migrant Workers in Irregular Situations and Addressing Irregular Labour Migration” explains the various situations that can lead migrant workers into irregular status, their rights, and the relevant international legal framework. It also presents practices that can help prevent irregular labour migration, increasing benefits for migrant workers and their families, nationals and countries of origin and destination.
