Powerful piece by @AndreaEganGS. Under the new 'earned settlement' proposals, migrant workers are being punished for policies that they don’t control, including low wages, which are only low because the government refuses to fund care work properly. See the issue here?
Andrea Egan UNISON General Secretary@AndreaEganGS

As billionaires whip up hate, Labour must stop scapegoating migrants and worsening their exploitation at the hands of bullying employers. Migrant workers, many of whom are UNISON members, are our country’s backbone. My piece in the Guardian today: theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

We are calling on the @UKLabour government to end the use of #TiedVisas. These visas tie workers to specific employers, putting them at serious risk of exploitation and preventing them from fully exercising their employment rights. Read our report today: atleu.org.uk/cases-news/unt…

I’m looking forward to speaking at the Trafficking Compensation Action Group this evening. Recovery of compensation from a trafficker is a rarity and not a norm for survivors of trafficking and modern slavery. I’ll be talking about what govt should be doing to change this
ATLEU@ATLEUnit

Don’t forget! Just one day until our next Trafficking Compensation Action Group meeting. If you’re a practitioner supporting survivors to access compensation, join us tomorrow at 6.00pm, at Cloisters Chambers, 1 Pump Ct, Temple, London EC4Y 7AS See you there!

🚨 The real emergency? Survivors of human trafficking and exploitation are left to face destitution, or worse, a return to exploitation. See how we’re fighting hostile policies: atleu.org.uk/cases-news/rig…

10 years of the Modern Slavery Act and still so far from evidenced-based and survivor informed law and policies to tackle trafficking and modern slavery. New @ATLEUnit blog includes reflections from one of ATLEU’s Changemakers on what needs to change

Criminal Injuries Compensation Scheme is failing survivors of trafficking and modern slavery: routinely denying them compensation that is crucial to their recovery. Thanks to @AfterExpProject for their must read report on this issue: afterexploitation.com/wp-content/upl…

🚨Modern slavery survivors are being turned away from compensation After Exploitation FOIs showed at least 82% of applications (1 Jan 23 - 23 June 24) were refused @UKAntiSlavery called this "horrendous and a clear failing": independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-n… via @Holly_JoyB @Independent

A case brought by our client successfully challenged the adverse impact of the financial threshold for legal aid, which would have forced them to choose between their recovery and access to justice. Thanks to @dongreene at @DoughtyStreet for his help. atleu.org.uk/cases/2024/4/3…
