Labour exploitation of migrants 2014, para. 80
- Paragraph text
- Ensure that all workers receive a contract in a language they understand, and that they are protected against contract substitution. Ensure that the contract signed by the worker in their home country is respected in the destination country, and that the work they perform is in accordance with their contract. Bilateral agreements between countries of origin and destination should strengthen human rights protection, and include a model contract which sets out the rights of the worker, including working conditions, and salary. Use certified recruitment agencies, and ensure that they do not work with non-registered sub-agencies.
