[PDF] Race to the bottom: Exploitation of migrant workers ahead of Russia’s 2014 Winter Olympic Games in Sochi

...As this report documents, dozens of...workers suffered abuse and exploitation while employed on key Olympic venues. This report is based on in-depth interviews with 66 migrant workers who...were employed in construction...on Olympic and other sites in Sochi. Migrant workers said employers subjected them to a range of abuses and exploitation, including: failing to pay full wages, excessively delaying payment of wages, and in some cases failing to pay any wages at all; withholding identity documents, such as passports and work permits; failing to provide employment contracts, or failure to respect terms of a contract; and requiring excessive working hours and providing little time off. In many cases, employer-provided housing was overcrowded, and employer-provided meals were inadequate. In several cases...employers retaliated against foreign migrant workers who protested against abuses by denouncing them to the authorities, resulting in the workers’ expulsion from Russia.
