| contents | Key findings from an assessment of the Kenyan legal framework for access to complaints and remedy procedures by migrant workers International Labour Organization (Issuing Body) This policy brief highlights key findings from an assessment of the Kenya–Gulf labour migration corridor, focusing on the experiences of Kenyan migrant workers in Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries. It reveals significant governance challenges such as high recruitment costs, contract substitution, abuse, and limited consular support. The brief underscores gaps in pre-departure training, inadequate regulation of private employment agencies, and weak monitoring systems. It calls for improved coordination among government actors, stronger protection mechanisms for migrant workers, enhanced oversight of recruitment practices, and the development of bilateral agreements to ensure safe and fair migration. ILO brief. Policy brief, ILO 10.54394/FAFX6931 DOI https://doi.org/10.54394/FAFX6931 publication.encyclopediaEntry |
