Last month, Seithi on Vasantham, Mediacorp's Tamil news channel, covered the issue of the transport of migrant workers on the back of lorries 🎥🎙️

Hear directly from a migrant worker who lost the use of his legs after a lorry accident and was repatriated back to India.

HOME's Deputy Director, Prashant Somosundram, also shared more on HOME's recommendations in the Risky Rides report.

These recommendations include using a small portion of the $7 billion dollars of foreign worker levies that the government collects annually to subsidise the transition to safer transport options for small and medium enterprises.

We need your support. Sign the petition today at 🔗 change.org/BanTheRealDanger ✍️ also linked in our bio.

Shanti paid almost $8,000 in recruitment fees and arrived in Singapore with a legitimate In-Principle Approval from the Ministry of Manpower. But there was no real job waiting for her.

Desperate and in debt, she turned to HOME. Together, we sought help from multiple government agencies. Yet because the suspected scam originated overseas, no agency took responsibility for investigating her case, even though some payments were made to Singapore bank accounts. She was also not allowed to stay in Singapore to find a job.

Who is accountable when migrant workers are exploited through transnational recruitment scams, but fall through the gaps between agencies?

Swipe to read Shanti’s story and HOME’s questions about how her case was handled.

Welcome to Part 2 of our Kopi Sessions ☕️ on the topic of Trafficking and S*x Work in Singapore. With us is Vanessa Ho from Project X (Project X 🇸🇬🇸🇬), an organisation that supports s*x workers in Singapore.

In this episode, we talk about how demand for s*xual services continues to drive the industry. Given this, what protections are needed to reduce harm and prevent exploitation?

From labour protections and safe reporting channels to reducing trafficking risks and violence, we must shift the conversation to forefront the rights, safety and dignity of workers.

This marks the final post of our Employment Act (EA) ammendments series. In this post, we call for a Universal Living Wage for all workers in Singapore, as we touch on existing wage policies that exclude migrant workers 🗣️

We submitted this joint report, together with TWC2, Here With You, and Workers Make Possible, to push for greater protections for low-wage workers, especially migrant workers – a group that is often overlooked or considered last.

We must continue to advocate for the rights of the more than 1 million low-wage migrant workers who face significant barriers when it comes to advocating for themselves 🤜💥🤛
