dc.description.abstract |
This is the second volume dealing with labour migration in Asia, and is a compilation of the findings of three studies set up to assess and identify good practices in the protection of vulnerable migrant workers and provision of support services. One observation was that Sri Lanka was one of two countries that organized pre departure orientation programmes for migrants, and this was commendable. The study is a comprehensive treatise on the measures taken, the legal framework, institutional support and other protective mechanisms for the welfare and security of its migrant workers. The Sri Lankan situation is dealt with in some detail. |
