Migrant Worker Guidelines for Employers

This guidebook from the International Organisation for Migration (IOM) provides practical guidance that can help you to recruit and employ international migrant workers ethically and responsibly. This guidance aligns with international human rights and labour standards and frameworks on international migration and build on the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights.

The guidelines are divided into four parts: understanding migrant workers and the labour migration process; building a labour migration management system; managing the labour migration process; and supporting tools that include checklists, guidance notes, and other useful documents that can help you to develop and implement the system, principles, and practices necessary for managing the labour migration process. These guidelines will be particularly beneficial to HR professionals and personnel actively engage with migrant workers.
