The study is based on comparing the health status and forms of abuse experienced by Middle East returnee migrants with that of both locally employed and unemployed women in Sri Lanka. Colombo District was selected as the area of study. Study revealed that unemployed females were in better health and were physically in a better condition than those of migrant females. The latter were also more physically abused than unemployed females, and employed females were the most frequently sexually abused group.. Psychological abuse was most seen in migrant females. |
