legal counseling and aid There is a steady inflow of workers coming to the Bureau centers with complaints of fraudulence and malpractice against them relating to incidents at destinations, some of which result in the termination of their employment. The field centres register and respond to cases requiring intervention between workers and their employers/contractors. In more difficult cases where arbitration is not possible, assistance is sought from experienced legal practitioners. Workshops that focus on rights of labour are a regular feature of Bureau’s communication with migrant workers. As part of its counseling, legal information is regularly provided. A simple take away attendance diary that the Bureau has developed continues to be very popular and useful as it helps keep a record of work done and payments received. Another publication (“Pardes Jaane Se Pehle") provides practical tips and cautions to those who are on the threshold of leaving their homes for work.
