dc.description.abstract |
The study describes institutional arrangements for the welfare funds in three countries. The author assesses the impact and effectiveness of their operation in promoting the interests of migrant workers and protecting them from the risks commonly encountered at their job sites. The three welfare funds have similar objectives and are funded mainly from the contributions of the migrant workers. For each welfare fund, this report will review its ability to provide the efficient delivery of a service and its outreach. This assessment will identify “good practices” and elements which contribute to the effective performance of a fund in protecting migrant workers especially at their place of work. |
