Area 5 of 6
Safe Migration Awareness
Prevention is better than rescue.
A significant number of migrant-worker problems can potentially be reduced through better awareness before departure. Videsh Mitra aims to promote awareness around:
- Safe overseas employment
- Verification of recruiters and employers
- Employment contracts
- Visa and documentation
- Recruitment fees and fraud
- Workers’ rights
- Emergency contacts
- Indian Mission support
- Recognising exploitation and trafficking
- Keeping copies of important documents
- Maintaining communication with family
We want prospective migrant workers to make informed decisions before they leave India.
