The Association for Migrant Worker’s Human Rights

The Association for Migrant Worker's Human Rights was established in 1992 to address the issues faced by the migrant workers in Korea such as discrimination, poor working conditions, unlawful employment, lack of benefits, and communication barriers. The Association conducts counseling concerning unpaid wages, industrial accidents, passport-related problems, international marriages, and problems returning to home country. It also conducts researches on the conditions of the migrant workers to serve as evidence for the formulation of policies as well as the formation of support groups that handles campaigns and information dissemination activities for the protection of the human rights of migrant workers.
