The people who keep the fishing industry running are too often brought to the UK on insecure immigration routes that leave them unprotected. This needs sorting out - FLEX's report 👇🏽
FLEX@FocusOnLabour

Labour exploitation in the fishing sector is not simply a matter of individual bad actors; it is underpinned by legal and regulatory gaps. Our new report, out on #HumanRightsDay, provides an in-depth analysis of the seafarer visa, and the impact on migrant fishers.

This weekend, we sat down with outsourced cleaners from @IWGBunion working in some of London's biggest high-street shops. In our workshops, workers consistently flag the huge gap between what brands think is happening, and what workers actually experience every day.

This weekend @FocusOnLabour staff joined with @thevoiceofdws to discuss the intersecting challenges of employment and migration. We also looked at how the government's upcoming Fair Work Agency needs to work, for domestic workers to be abl to work without risk of exploitation.

This #AntiSlaveryDay, preventing labour exploitation for migrant workers must be at the top of the workers’ rights agenda. This requires not small tweaks, but understanding and resolving the systematic barriers to reporting and tackling exploitation. Watch our latest video:

When women on the Seasonal Worker Scheme were asked if they had ever been paid lower than promised, 27% said yes. 16% of men said the same. That isn't just a blip. Government must address the ways that women on the scheme are marginalised in an already-precarious workforce.

“Ultimately workers and employers both need to know that the workers have the option to withdraw their labour and find another job, and won’t lose their immigration status or risk destitution if they are unable to work" says @FocusOnLabour in this new piece by @FreyLindsayMCP

It is clear the memo went out in recent days among Western leaders to once again try to appease public fury at the genocide they're collectively responsible for, trotting out in front of cameras to do their best impression of human beings. Nobody's fooled. See you in the Hague.

The appalling scenes in Gaza are unrelenting. The UK will pull every lever we have to get food and lifesaving support to Palestinians, and we will evacuate children who need urgent medical assistance. This humanitarian catastrophe must end.

Today the government confirmed "major immigration reforms delivered to restore order and control". The reality of these reforms? Chaos for people's lives, undermining workers' rights, and driving exploitation. Read FLEX's emergency analysis here: labourexploitation.org/news/emergency…

With the Employment Rights Bill going through Parliament, we have an opportunity to turn the tide on the rampant labour exploitation that migrant workers face in this country. Our latest video highlights the problems caused by restrictive visa systems, and the solutions to them.

¿Vamos a normalizar esto? Cada semana, vemos personas de 70, 80 y 90 años a quienes la policía reprime por reclamar por sus derechos. Viven con 343 mil pesos mensuales y exigen mejores condiciones de vida. ¿Quién puede vivir con esa suma? NADIE, incluidos el presidente y la ministra de Seguridad.
