Recruitment practices and the human rights of migrants 2015, para. 60
Paragraph- Paragraph text
- Above and beyond banning fees, the development and harmonization of the legal and policy frameworks relating to recruitment is needed to transition to a wholly ethical system. Reform should include the ratification and full implementation of all international human rights instruments, including the two 1966 International Covenants on Human Rights and the International Convention on the Protection of the Rights of All Migrant Workers and Members of Their Families, as well as relevant labour standards, including the 1997 ILO Convention on Private Employment Agencies (no. 181), and soft law principles such as the Dhaka Principles. All of these standards apply to all migrants irrespective of their legal status and also include duties for States to protect individuals from third-party violations of their human rights.
