High-profile media investigations have long suggested that underpayment of migrant workers is widespread. But concrete evidence has been lacking. Grattan Institute’s upcoming report presents new evidence that shows exploitation of migrant workers in Australia remains widespread. And underpayment is also a significant problem for Australian workers.
Join Grattan Institute experts Trent Wiltshire and Tyler Reysenbach for this special speed-briefing webinar event on their upcoming report Short-changed: How to stop the exploitation of migrant workers in Australia.
