| Description: |
This book investigates the alarming of fatalities among migrant workers. The authors argue that migrant workers are often powerless and unprotected by national laws, unearthing new truths on migrant workers as significant economic players. |
| Synopsis: |
In recent years, the alarming number of fatalities among migrant workers has stirred up much controversy. Most cases of migrant fatalities were reported from countries in the Middle East and South East Asia, and their deaths were the result of unhealthy food habits, poor access to health services, mental stress and dangerous working conditions. These fatalities are also due to flaws in the policies of the governments, of both origin and destination. This book investigates conditions, policies and impacts of fatalities. The authors argue that migrant workers are often powerless and unprotected by national laws, and unearth new truths about migrant workers and their increased significance as an economic and political player. |
