TLMPs impose limits on the length of time a migrant is lawfully permitted to be in the receiving country and stipulate the type of work that a migrant can lawfully perform. Typically targeting low-wage workers, TLMPs are frequently seasonal, and they are often circular. Migrant workers admitted under these programmes are regularly denied the same rights as permanent residents or citizens in the host state and they face a range of restrictions relating to access to benefits and services, mobility, residence, employment, and family life (Fudge, 2012). In effect, TLMPs create a hierarchically organized and differentiated supply of migrant workers who are often racialized and gendered (Lewis et al., 2015; Surak, 2013). Since these programmes often tie migrant workers’ right to reside and work in the host state to an on-going employment relationship with a sponsoring employer, employers exercise a great deal of control over migrant workers. TLMPs for low wage workers are associated with severe decent work deficits such as forced labour, wage theft, and discrimination (ILO, 2017a: 117).","PeriodicalId":46041,"journal":{"name":"Global Social Policy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2022-06-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47681860","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Migrant workers number about 169 million, with about 58 million in ‘irregular migration’ (i.e. not authorized to work; International Labour Organization [ILO], 2021: 2–3). A seminal study revealing many female migrants in forced labor in the Malaysia electronic industry caused a global rethink of auditing (Verité, 2014). Reports by the ILO and other revealed extensive forced labor and trafficking abuses in the global fishing industry, spurring efforts to correct (FishWise, 2017; ILO, 2015). Broadly speaking, the ILO addresses migrant worker rights through its Decent Work Agenda, Conventions and Recommendations, and in alignment with the 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda and the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs). New opportunities exist, however, for measurably improving labor rights protections in global supply chains through improved standard setting and enhanced verification of conformance to the standards as well as product traceability.

Migration has come to be recognised as a multifaceted phenomenon in terms of who moves, for what reason and by what means. The intensification of efforts made over the last decades at the global level to coordinate policy on migration across the world is indicative of the recognition that the movement of people is a truly global phenomenon; not only in terms of its geographic reach implicating most if not all countries around the world but also for the wide ranging socio-economic and political implications spanning migrant origin, destination and transit countries. ‘Global’, thus, importantly also relates to the role of organisational actors whose globality is evidenced by (voluntary or involuntary) engagement with, and solution finding for, large-scale challenges that transcend national boundaries, such as labour migration. Despite these recent efforts to coordinate migration policy in recognition of its globality, international migration is clearly a phenomenon that has a far longer history worldwide. Yet, the fact that migration is typically framed as a ‘problem’ and that this framing has come in waves is often ignored. Throughout history, migrants have been in need whenever there is a (real or perceived) shortage of workers but subsequently are scapegoated during periods of economic and production downturns. All the time, migrants have been subjected to unequal bargaining power and legal barriers put in place to restrict their","PeriodicalId":46041,"journal":{"name":"Global Social Policy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2022-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47792385","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite the challenges, the ILC adopted a series of resolutions and conclusions on important issues pertaining to the world of work such as social security, inequalities, skills and lifelong learning; and a call to action to respond to the COVID-19 crisis.1 All these resolutions are inclusive of migrant workers and some of their particularities. The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic took place in an already testing and fragile global scenario with high environmental risks due to climate change, technological transformations, and demographic shifts. In addition, mounting popular unrest became more acute in light of the existing inequalities that were amplified with the pandemic. Taking this complex setting into account, this piece reflects on the notion that ‘labour is not a commodity’ as a key founding concept enshrined in the ILO’s Philadelphia Declaration of 1944. Rethinking and bringing back this notion is important for it represents a means to materialize a ‘human-centred approach’ to the world of work and beyond, strengthening the global governance of labour while providing hope to restore a fragile world order. A ‘human-centred approach’ is the centre-piece of the ILO’s Centenary Declaration for the Future of Work (ILO, 2019) wherein the ILO reimagines itself to better deal with current challenges. This contribution will consider ILO’s relevance in the face of technological, socioeconomic and climatic alteration. It will look at transformative events in the form of ‘global crisis situations’ and reflect on the embeddedness of ILO policy in general trends of thinking on ‘the economic’ and ‘the social’ before focusing on aspects of the Philadelphia Declaration that can inspire a ‘post recovery world’.","PeriodicalId":46041,"journal":{"name":"Global Social Policy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2022-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48783366","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
