- title:
- 3. Continue focusing on capacity building of key stakeholders, particularly the social partners, to ensure protection of female migrant workers.
Currently, many trade unions do not represent migrant workers. However, the WIF project has shown some examples of progress in this regard through its awareness-raising activities. Additional efforts are needed to build the capacity of trade unions to also effectively represent female migrant workers.
Governments still require significant support to further develop and improve their legislative and policy frameworks for migrant protection. At the same time, there is a continuous need to train labour inspectors to enforce new laws – recognising the particular vulnerabilities of women, but also to train local governments to provide services (in partnership with NGOs).
Lastly, for employer organisations, migrant protection may still misalign with their company priorities. Awareness-raising and training is needed to ensure that employers recognise the value of ensuring decent working conditions for female migrant workers.
