Global: October 7 – World Day for Decent Work
Stand up for the right to fair migration and Decent Work for all!
Details
Everyone should have the right to a decent job with living wage and social security. Yet more than 21 million people around the world are trapped in forced labour with precarious working conditions.
At least 9.1 million (44 per cent) of all who are used in forced labour are migrant workers.
To migrate and seek refugee is a human right. When governments are closing their borders to prevent refugees to enter, when they deport workers who only want a better future for themselves and their families, when employers make profit from exploiting migrant workers under slave-like conditions – we need to speak up!
