Labour rights organization: Federal government should establish independent oversight agency to protect foreign workers
A foreign worker labour rights organization is calling on the federal government to establish an independent agency to protect foreign workers’ rights. The independent agency will be responsible to probe complaints, with the guarantee that employees won’t be punished for raising concerns regarding the employment. Temporary foreign workers in Canada have become a high-risk group after the pandemic due to the conditions of the environment they live in. Some of them were forcibly isolated by their employers who limited their mobility, and some were fired because of breaking the rules.
