The KNVB has again urged FIFA to arrange fair compensation and better legal support for migrant workers in Qatar...

The KNVB is responding to an Amnesty International poll in the Netherlands and fourteen other countries. Over two-thirds of respondents said the KNVB should speak out publicly about the human rights abuses associated with the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, including compensation for migrant workers.

The football association pointed out that it already spoke out against Qatar as the host country when the World Cup was awarded in 2010. “We have spoken out many times about the human rights situation, both in interviews in the press and when we received the petition from #CancelQatar,” the KNVB said...

The KNVB also supports Amnesty International’s plea for compensation for migrant workers. “We also believe that the victims or relatives should be compensated,” the KNVB said, adding that employers, the government in Qatar, the organizing committee, and FIFA must play a role in that.
