Book Description
Compilation of papers originally presented at the PICUM conference held on 26 May 2003 at the European Parliament, Brussels. Sheds light on international migration and the deterioration of working conditions for undocumented migrants. Lists protective and repressive measures in use in European countries, followed by an overview of labour conditions faced by undocumented workers in agriculture, construction, and domestic work. Explores the basic social rights and minimum standards, and the role of actors who contribute to promoting undocumented workers' rights, such as social inspectors, trade unions, and NGOs. Gives recommendations and a list of relevant websites. Includes two ILO contributions: Patrick A. Taran: Globalization, migration and exploitation - irregular migrants and fundamental rights at work (p. 9-23); and Roger Plant: Forced labour and migrant workers (p. 61-65).
