...This report is about temporary migrants, their lives and experiences at work. By and on behalf of workers, it makes the case that temporary visa status is directly linked to inequality and exploitation. And it makes the case for immediate, strong and reliable visa protection for all migrant workers, as the necessary first step towards combatting the exploitation of temporary migrants at work.
