[Blog] Three steps to end discrimination of migrant workers and improve their health

Submitted by fabbri on

ILO (14.02.2018) When migrant workers leave their home, many encounter abuse and violence on their journey and discrimination once they arrive. This can be because of their status as migrants but also because of their ethnicity, sex, religion, and HIV status. They often struggle to find decent work, which means they can end up in poor living and working conditions, which in turn affects their health. Female migrants are more likely to be vulnerable to exploitation and violence, which exposes them to the risk of HIV and other health issues.

Plus d'un demi million de travailleurs détachés en France

Submitted by fabbri on

Les Echos (05.02.2018) Attention donnée sensible : un peu plus de 516.000 travailleurs ont été détachés en France l'année dernière, hors transport routier, selon un bilan intermédiaire du plan national de lutte contre le travail illégal dévoilé par « Le Monde ». Outre son côté symbolique, c'est surtout l'évolution de ce chiffre qui frappe puisqu'il marque une progression de 46 % par rapport au millésime 2016, lui-même supérieur de 25 % sur l'année précédente.
