Introduction to Topic B
“As soon as the harvest is in, you’re a migrant worker. Afterwards just a bum.”
– Nunnally Johnson
The “United Nations Convention on the Protection of the Rights of All Migrant Workers and
Members of Their Families” defines migrant workers as a “person who is engaged or has been
engaged in a remunerated activity in the State of which he or she is not a national.”1
This UN
Convention came in 2005, when nearly a third of the world’s population constituted international
migrants, which was comparable to the entire population of Brazil. Due to the relative ease of
global transportation and the effects of 21st
century globalization, widespread international
migration has become the norm.
At the same time, migrant workers are cursed with a myriad of issues ranging from wage
discrimination and physical abuse to the lack of social services and the deprivation of legal rights.
Living in a foreign country strips migrant workers of their labor rights and places them in the
mercy of employers.
The Special Political and Decolonization Committee (SPECPOL), General Assembly's Fourth
Committee’s mandate includes debating questions related to widespread political topics such as
international labour and self-determination. Thus, the Committee has the obligation of discussing
the issue of migrant labour as almost every country is involved in the issue. Despite the lack of
binding character of the Committee’s resolutions, they still contain a strong appeal since they
reflect the opinion of the majority of countries.
Today, there are an abundance of international laws, conventions, and treaties that protect the
indivisible human rights of migrant workers, but more are neither ratified nor implemented. At
the end of the day, migrant workers are poorly protected in both developed and developing
countries. The International Labor Organization (ILO) predicted that the world would have
around 220 million migrants,2
which this number to grow exponentially every year. The Special
Political and Decolonization Committee (SPECPOL) needs to find a resolution that both appeases
countries providing and receiving migrant workers, and ultimate helping every migrant worker
around the world to breathe a little easier the next day.

Timeline
1919
The International Labor Organization (ILO) was created as part of the Treaty of Versailles for the
purposes of working towards global social justice through the protection of workers.
October 29th, 1919
The first International Labor Conventions are agreed upon, pertaining to unemployment, work
hours, minimum age requirements, and maternity rights.
August 1942
The bracero program between the United States and Mexico is established
1945 to 1962
The aftershock of World War II causes the Commonwealth nations to receive a large influx of
migrant workers from Asia and Africa
1949
The ILO Migration for Employment Convention provides free assistance and information
services to migrants.
1970 to 1980
The oil crisis of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) causes widespread
unemployment in Europe, as foreign workers were not necessary. Thus, nations began pursuing
anti-immigration laws to ban migrant workers.
1975
The Migrant Workers Supplementary Convention was adopted by the UN to combat illegal
immigration, but still emphasizes the right to a minimum degree of protection for migrants.
1979
The Convention on Elimination of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW) focused on the
protection of women’s rights and issues worldwide.
December 18th, 1990
The UN General Assembly adopts the International Convention on the Protection of the Rights
of All Migrant Workers and Members of Their Families, (otherwise known as the UN Migrant
Workers Convention) and has since been ratified by 46 countries and has 16 signatories. Today,
the Committee on Migrant Workers (CMW) now oversees the terms of the convention.

2008
60 foreign migrants are killed and 10,000 are left homeless in an attack on migrant workers in
South Africa
January 9th, 2010
1,000 migrant workers are then sent to deportation centers in Rosarno, Italy, with 53 other
migrant workers injured.
May 23rd, 2012
Thousands of Israelis gather to the streets of Tel Aviv to protest against African immigrants
seeking labor protection in the Middle East.
Historical Analysis
The issue of migrant workers can be found starting as early as the eighteenth century, as
colonialism in Africa forced many native residents to abandon their homes in search of a better
pay from the Europeans.
After World War I, the International Labor Organization (ILO) was created as part of the Treaty
of Versailles for the purposes of working towards global social justice through the protection of
workers and “to foster peace in the global political economy.”3
Fast forward two decades, we see that the number of migrant workers and migrant immigrants
have sharply increased after World War II, as opportunities in Western Europe proportionally
rose. As countries recovered from the aftermath of World War II, their doors were wide open for
many immigrants so that they could rebuild their domestic economies. Also, a low cost of travel,
caused by rapid technological improvements, expedited the process of immigration for many
migrant workers.
For instance, Gastarbeiters, or Turkish immigrants working in Germany, were one of the most
prominent migrant worker groups in the post-World War II era. As Germany suffered economic
losses due to the war, Gastarbeiters helped to supplement the country’s post-war demand for
labour. Despite their enormous contributions to Germany’s economy, Gastarbeiters were not
granted citizenship, resulting in social conflict, legal issues, and human rights loss.

5. 4
Likewise, the United States implemented a bracero program with Mexico, for the importation of
Mexican workers to the United States. The program was prompted by a demand for manual
labour after World War II, and the program employed Mexican workers until 1964. The bilateral
agreement between the United States and Mexico allowed the passage of bracero (strong arm)
migrant workers for the support of the agricultural industry. The rise of the American population
also pressured the bracero program to stay longer. However, the House of Representatives in 1954
decided to transfer this program to private agencies and thus removed their responsibility to
protect the rights of migrant workers from Mexico.
Notable programs implemented by national governments include guest worker programs, which
helped to move workers from areas with a high density of workers to areas of low worker-density.
This allowed workers to leave when labour is no longer required.
In the decade of the 1970s, an economic boom in the Middle East gave the Gulf States incentives
to import foreign workers from less economically sound countries nearby. As a result, the Kafala
system was established, prohibiting the transport of migrant workers without guarantee of the
protection of that worker’s legal rights abroad. Soon enough, organizations and countries
“promised” to protect the rights of migrant workers, and the Kafala system would make them the
workers’ sponsors of legal rights. This newfound addition of enormous legal power gave way for
the imbalance of power between the migrant workers and the corporations. Migrant workers had
their passports taken away and rights deprived by the corporations of the Gulf States. This Kafala
system was much like the bracero program in the United States, where the government would
give away their responsibility to protect labouring immigrants.
A decade later, the decline in oil prices resulted in a transformation of migrant worker
demographics in the Middle East. Traditionally, countries swimming in oil money would easily be
able to employ workers from nearby countries. However, the decline in the prosperity of the oil
6. 5
industry in the Middle East at this time also decreased the number of workers due to rising labour
costs. One way the government cut labour costs was to employ Asian workers who were willing to
work for low wages and repulsive working conditions. Again, these workers were not well
protected and allowed the Middle Eastern countries to throw away their legal rights and liberties
as migrant workers.
In the 1990s, the Middle Eastern order of migrant workers was deeply disturbed when the
regional countries engaged in the Gulf War and the Iraq-Kuwait War. This region was home to
many migrant workers, as the demand for labour was needed. In the end, 2 million workers were
expelled from nearby countries as a result of worker displacement. The financial assets, legal
rights, and migrant rights of workers were completely ignored.
Migrant worker demographics in China
In Asia, economies grew rapidly as more than 6.5 million migrant workers4
spread throughout
Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore, and Thailand. Although economic prosperity made countries
happy, migrant workers also became a fundamental institution in their economies. For instance,
the financial crisis of 1997 hit Asian economies the hardest, and migrant workers were relieved of
their jobs, growth rates halted, and national development stopped. Migrant workers also created
enormous political pressure for countries such a China, where the outskirts of large cities were
filled with migrant workers. These areas were politically unstable and led many countries to
construct unemployment relief schemes in order to quickly deport migrant workers who may be a
threat to national security. This was because governments simply did not have the proper
housing, infrastructure, and resources to care for migrant workers.

7. 6
Current Situation
The exploitation of migrant workers exists in both nearly every country around the world. Over
600,000 foreign workers have been exploited in the Qatar alone, 5
(International Labour
Organization) particularly due to the imbalance of power between the employer and the
employees.
Migration patterns today also have a great effect on worldwide economic trends and policies. As
an example, Chinese workers have recently moved from the rural countryside to the coastal cities
in search of a brighter financial future. This has created a dual society: a poor rural China and a
modern coastal China. At the same time, rich Chinese citizens have emigrated to North America
and Europe in search of professional employment.
Likewise, migration from Latin America to the United States has surged. The legacy left behind by
the bracero program caused a growing number of undocumented immigrants. As a result, the
strengthening and militarization of the U.S.-Mexico border and immigration reform have limited
the number of undocumented immigrants. However, it is worthy to note that undocumented
5

workers-in-2013/
8. 7
immigrants still constitute 11 million residents in the United States today.6
Governments such as
the United States have also chosen to terminate social services and legal rights for undocumented
immigrants as a backlash to this issue.
Today, the total number of migrant workers has increased over the past ten years from 150
million in 2000 to 214 million in 2010.7
(International Organization for Migration) Mind you
delegates; 214 million is 3.1% of the world’s population. The reasons for migration are the same as
they were two hundred years ago; a drive to leave home and attraction to a new location.
As most experts predict a rise in migrant workers over the decade, delegates are required to
address the many economic and cultural issues that arise from mass migration. Both developed
and developing countries are forced to make policies that address humanitarian and social issues
related to international labour.
For instance, human trafficking is an issue that arises from mass migration. The UN and the
United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime defines human trafficking as the recruitment,
transportation, transfer, harbouring or receipt of persons, by means of the threat or use of force or
other forms of coercion, of abduction, of fraud, of deception, of the abuse of power or of a
position of vulnerability or of the giving or receiving of payments or benefits to achieve the
consent of a person having control over another person, for the purpose of exploitation.”8
(United
Nations)
Human trafficking is the world’s third largest illegal industry, generating more than $32 billion
dollars in revenue annually,9
(dosomething.org) and the International Labour Organization
estimates that there are 20.9 million victims of labour exploitation worldwide.10
(ILO, 2012) The
facilitated transportation of migrant workers and loss of legal rights makes migrant workers
extremely vulnerable to this illegal industry. Also, the increased movement of global crime
organizations illegally funnel migrants over borders for profit, and can force governments to
expensively crack down on illegal operations. A common strategy most traffickers use is to steal
travel documents and personal documents of the victims in order to subject them to forced
labour.
New economic conditions have created a demand for young females, as can be seen in the 3
million female workers in Europe alone.11
These young females work in the informal sector,
where governmental regulation and protection are lacking. Thus, labour rights are almost never
enforced and monitored. On top of that, women’s wages are kept lower than men’s wages since

they are not seen as a primary source of income for the family. Since women have work abroad,
their gender roles of also shifted to a stronger one. They have more leverage in the family since
they control the household income to a greater extent. At the same time, this has produced
hostility from the husbands and can be a breeding ground for domestic violence. Lastly, the issue
of migrant women working abroad raises concerns for their children. Children born abroad may
also become migrant workers themselves. Also, negative psychological effect on children can be
seen when they live in a sub-standard environment with their parents as migrant workers.
After the events of 9/11, many countries were worried of home grown terrorism, a possible effect
of migrant workers. In the United States, Americans have recently become increasingly hostile
towards undocumented immigrants, and have led to governmental crackdowns on workers
seeping through the holes of border patrol. Recently, the House of Representatives passed a
comprehensive bill on immigration, addressing the issue of 11 million immigrants currently
living in the United States without authorization from the government. This bill includes a 13-
year pathway to citizenship for current undocumented migrants, and a strict set of employer
sanctions discouraging the employment of illegal migrant workers.
10. 9
Faults in the enforcement of labour laws and treaties make foreign workers even more susceptible
to sub-standard working environment and exploitation. An example to this claim can be seen in
the United Arab Emirates, where 85% of workers are migrants.12
Although the 1980 Labour Law
of the United Arab Emirates provides safety measures, financial insurance, and a multitude of
other legal rights for migrant workers, the national Ministry of Labour barely acts on it and has
not reported regarding its successes and failures. The government of the United Arab Emirates
scarcely monitors the inhumane living conditions, long work hours, and humanitarian abuses of
its migrant worker majority.
The employers easily control migrant workers unaware of their rights, by threatening them to
turn them over to the migration agency or the police. With the eventual attention drawn to the
2016 Summer Olympics, employment opportunities will begin to draw more and more
immigrants to the area. Thus, delegates need to have urgent mechanisms in order to combat
illegal migrant activities that may occur at the global event.
Case Study: Malaysia
Malaysia has been a long-establish destination for migrant workers to escape poverty at home and
to provide for their families. However, their experiences in Malaysia has included long working
hours, physical and verbal abuses, hazardous working and living conditions, and substandard
living spaces. These issues were all results of both agent incompetence and exploitation of migrant
workers. On the agent’s side, there were gaps where legal regulations were supposed to be
exercised, lies made by the agent about working conditions when truths were to be told, and the
exploitation of migrant workers’ legal rights by agents as they held their official documents. The
state of Malaysia has failed to exercise its power over these legal exploitations. One Vietnamese
Worker stated “wages were usually paid late, a one month later. When we were completely out of
money for food.” Although, Malaysia has enacted the Anti-Trafficking in Persons Act in 2007, the
federal government is not making and has not made significant efforts to purge the widespread
tradition of migrant worker exploitation in the country.13
UN Involvement
It is clear that the major international organization fighting the exploitation of migrant workers is
the International Labour Organization. (ILO) Since 1920, this organization has been at the
forefront of battle to protect our migrant workers. In 2005, the Millennium Development Goals
were revised with an additional target of “achieving full and productive employment and decent
work for all, including women and younger people.”14

Another labour-focusing international body is the Migrant Rights International, (MRI) which is a
non-governmental organization that includes a forum for “migrant associations, human rights,
labor, religious, academic, and other organizations which operate at the local, national, regional,
and international level.”15
Finally, the International Organization for Migration (IOM) is an organization assisting
international migrants and “sees the need to use means and occasions available to stimulate
awareness of the contributions migrants can and do make, the difficulties they often face, and the
rights to which they are entitled as human beings.”16
(IOM Website)
On December 18, 1990, at the United Nations in New York, countries agreed to an United
Nations treaty governing the protection of migrant workers and their respective families. The
beginning of its implementation started on July 1, 2003 after 20 states had ratified it. As a result,
the Committee on Migrant Workers, (CMW) as one of seven UN human rights bodies, now
monitors the implementation of the terms listed in the convention.
The UN Convention emphasizes the human rights of migrant workers, and aims at protecting
migrant workers through a moral and humane standard of procedure. With the primary goal to
foster respect for the human rights of migrant workers, the convention aims at achieving equality
of treatment for all workers, regardless of their nationality. Although legal migrants have more
legitimacy than undocumented migrants, they still have fundamental human rights that cannot be
ignored. Without adding any new human rights, the Convention reiterates basic freedoms, legal
rights, and equality in the workplace. Along with these goals and attitudes, the Convention
proposes the eradication of corrupt movements against the integrity of migrant workers through
sanctions against traffickers and exploitative employers of foreign workers. Ratified by 46 States
today, this Convention remains as the world’s most comprehensive and recent bill regarding the
issue of migrant workers.
The United Nations has also declared December 18th
to be International Migrants Day (IMD) for
the purposes of raising awareness of the increase of migrant workers around the world.
Seeking Resolution
Although numerous conventions and treaties have sought to tackle the problem of migrant
worker exploitation, it still remains an ongoing issue today. There is a huge struggle to enforce

these terms listed since many countries feel they truly benefit from the global phenomenon of
migrant workers. Meanwhile, many countries that send out migrant workers continue to advocate
for their rights abroad.
For example, Indonesia is a major nation that provides migrant workers for countries around the
world. Thus, the country strives to protect its migrant workers abroad by pressuring Middle
Eastern countries to enforce standard working conditions, fair pay, and numerous other terms
listed in international treaties and conventions.
On the other hand, Thailand represents a country that employs millions of migrant workers. One
initiative the nation has employed is a National Verification program that allows illegal
immigrants to receive temporary passports in Thailand, so that their legal rights are preserved
during their tenure in the country.
In addition, the 1949 Migration for Employment Convention can be expanded upon to suit the
needs of a globalized society. Workers need to have more fundamental rights listed in order to
hold migrant-holding countries accountable for their actions.
Also, the international community must improve its current mechanisms for approaching
international migrant workers. Although many countries have ratified numerous conventions
and treaties relating to migrant workers, the implementation of the terms can be improved
through regular monitoring, judicial procedures, and humanitarian relief efforts.
Sending governments need to inform migrant workers of their rights listed under international
treaties and conventions. Governments can warn citizens of the dangers of working abroad as
well as educating citizens on their human rights. Governments may also choose threaten receiving
corporations with economic penalties for any illegal or inhumane activities. Lastly, government
can choose to send monitoring organizations in order to ensure that the rights of migrant workers
are respected in the receiving countries.
13. 12
As for the receiving governments, legislation can help to ensure the protection of labour rights.
Also, financial incentives can be given for both migrant workers and corporations that are able to
report fraudulent behavior. For example, amnesty can be given to workers who report unsanitary
and sub-standard work conditions around the country. Most importantly, receiving countries are
able, through their territorial sovereignty, to enforce domestic laws that can punish corporations
when fraudulent behavior against migrant workers is observed.
A long-term solution to consider is the addition and growth of the domestic economies of
countries sending off migrant workers. As economic incentives abroad and economic struggles at
home usually force the phenomenon of migrant workers, the increase of jobs at home will
encourage workers to stay at home. At the same time, many countries may criticize this option as
a threat to the global economy.
Lastly, a sovereign and overseeing body may be constructed to ensure that international measures
are implemented against the exploitation of migrant workers. For instance, the Committee on
Migrant Workers, (CMW) as one of seven UN human rights bodies, monitors the
implementation of the terms listed in the convention. An expansion of that committee into one
that is more comprehensive can truly help migrant workers.
Bloc Positions
North America/Oceania
These countries have sophisticated systems of working visa applications that overseas migrants
can strive for. In the case of the USA strict yearly limits have been set as to the number of guest
workers that can be employed under each type of visa. Most of the time, countries sending off
migrant workers are poorer and less developed nations tied to rich and industrialized countries
due to the effects of globalization. Countries receiving foreign labour would want to continue
having influxes of migrant workers. These countries would want to expand economic profits
through cheaper employment and care. Contrary to developing countries, nations receiving
migrant workers are oftentimes more industrialized and wealthy.
Europe
The EU has enacted legislation in the areas of visas, residence permits, family reunification, and
illegal immigration, but EU Member States have the right to determine the number of admissions
of third-country nationals in their territory for employment purposes, including temporary
workers. Russia is also a frequent user of foreign worker programs, and most recently,
controversy arose over the treatment of migrant workers by Russian authorities in Sochi. Human
rights advocates in Sochi also told Human Rights Watch that authorities raided workplaces,
homes and public places and then detained hundreds of migrant workers – who appeared to have
been targeted due to their non-Slavic appearance. Countries seeking foreign labour typically wish
to increase economic growth and development. As a result, these nations are generally reluctant
to accept resolutions that increase cost for foreign labour as this ultimately diminishes their
profits.
14. 13
Latin America / South America
Nationals from Latin America constitute a large part of the contributing worker populations, in
particular throughout the USA and Canada, with the majority of the USA’s guest workers being
of Mexican origin. In 2010, a massacre of 72 migrant workers in Mexico occurred. The migrant
workers were kidnapped by an organized crime cartel, and when the migrants resisted smuggling
drugs into the USA, they were shot. The National Human Rights Commission estimates that
1,600 migrants are kidnapped in Mexico each month.
Africa / Middle East
Several states in the Middle East are heavy employers of foreign workers, in the UAE more than
80% of the country’s eight million people in 2010 were foreigners. Development in the United
Arab Emirates would have been severely halted if migrant workers were taken away or reduced.
Foreign labour provides a source of cheaper employment and fills the more hazardous jobs that
local workers refuse to do.
Guiding Questions
What does your country define as a migrant worker?
Should governments take it upon themselves to control migrant worker programs, as opposed to
private industries organizing the programs?
What legal rights should migrant workers have?
How can the United Nations hold receiving countries and corporations accountable for the care
of migrant workers?
What are some education and awareness programs that can help global actors in this issue?
How can the United Nations enhance the investigative toolkits of law enforcers and police?
How can the United Nations establish over-seeing bodies acting on the issue?
