Improving Recruitment Processes For Foreign Domestic Workers

Over 400,000 foreign workers, including domestic workers, have returned to their respective countries leaving many families to struggle without any assitance at home. We get an understanding of what is being done to address the issue, how the recruitment process can be made more transparent and what needs to be done to ensure workers are treated fairly moving forward.
