Topic
Migrant workers play an essential role in many key sectors, yet they are often the most exposed to vulnerability and exploitation.
The International Organization for Migration (IOM) and the UN Global Compact Network Italy are offering a series of three online events—one webinar and two sector-specific peer-learning sessions—to support companies in integrating the rights and needs of migrant workers into their human rights due diligence processes. The objective is threefold: to prevent risks, ensure compliance with international standards, and build more ethical and resilient supply chains.
