Paragraph
Recruitment practices and the human rights of migrants 2015, para. 73
- Paragraph text
- The business practices of unethical recruitment agencies are complex and opaque. These practices and the human rights consequences for migrants differ between countries, recruiters and sectors. However, economic exploitation, violence and intimidation unite the experiences of many migrant workers who have used unethical recruiters. It is clear that this human suffering is endemic and perpetuated by a range of systemic failures and perverse economic and political incentives.
