In January 2021, the two year project Hidden at Work – Labour and sexual exploitation and harassment of women in the (private) work sphere started. This project is coordinated by FairWork and jointly implemented with LEFÖ IBF in Austria, La Strada Czech Republic and La Strada International.
FairWork has collected a number of stories from migrant workers who have learned about their labour rights and the support options in the Netherlands. As a result, they have a stronger employment position and/or have been able to claim their rights.
Do you work with undocumented migrants and do you see that they are experiencing serious labour rights violations? Are they not getting paid, are they being pressured, kept indoors or have they been put out on the street by their employer?
In October, FairWork organizes two online information meetings about labour exploitation in times of corona. These meetings are intended for volunteers from migrant- and support organizations in Amsterdam or The Hague / Den Haag who (also) work with the target group of undocumented migrants and who have not previously followed a FairWork training. The meetings are free of charge.
Perhaps you are suddenly without work because of Corona. So you have to go to your country of origin. Before you leave, check the conditions in your work contract, and make sure you get your rights.
FairWork has developed an overview of options where to notify complaints about exploitation, human trafficking, sexual intimidation, bad housing etc.
When you contact FairWork for help and support, we process your personal data. FairWork will handle this information with care. We would like to inform you about the most important points of our privacy policy.
