Migrant workers under the domestic law and International Labour Organization (ILO) Convention in Perspective of Malaysia
Abstract
Malaysia has profited extraordinarily from the employment of migrant workers
in a few financially imperative areas. Amid the most recent two decades, these
workers have given the labour that has fuelled the nation's development as an
upper-centre wage nation. However, guaranteeing that migrant workers get
reasonable treatment keeps on demonstrating troublesome, with reports of
mishandling in a few major industries. In light of late improvements in
international trade and more scrutiny examination of worldwide supply chains,
there has been expanded weight from the global group to order approach and
institutional changes that will better ensure the rights of migrants. The
International Labour Organization (ILO) has been giving specialized help to the
government and social accomplices to reinforce labour migration administration
in Malaysia. Key territories of work have included contributing inputs to draft
enactment and reciprocal agreements, enhancing the accumulation of labour
migration statistics. The insurance of workers employed in a nation other than
their nation of root has dependably had a critical place among the exercises of
the ILO, since more than whatever other specialists they are at risk to misuse,
especially on the off chance that they are in an unpredictable circumstance and
are casualties of the trafficking of people. This paper concentrates on the
migrant worker, assurance of whether Domestic Law or ILO Convention and the
current insurance that is accessible in Malaysia's employment laws.
