This program is an educational and capacity-building initiative that will link key stakeholders (industry leaders, factory management, civil society organizations, and workers) to help secure safe and fair labor migration practices and is being piloted in Malaysia.
Key components of the program include:
- Worker surveys to capture the understanding of worker profiles, demographics, journey of labor migration, pre-employment expectations, and current perceptions of the workplace
- Worker-management communication systems to facilitate effective dialogues between employers and workers
- Worker training to provide education on available resources and guidance on access to these resources
- A worker helpline to address and support foreign migrant worker grievances
The pilot program began in Q4 of 2015
