abstract: 'Systematic violations of migrant workers'' human rights and striking
|
||||
|
||||
health disparities among these populations in the United Arab Emirates
|
||||
|
||||
(UAE) are the norm in member countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council
|
||||
|
||||
(GCC). Migrant laborers comprise about 90 percent of the UAE workforce
|
||||
|
||||
and include approximately 500,000 construction workers and 450,000
|
||||
|
||||
domestic workers. Like many other GCC members countries, the UAE
|
||||
|
||||
witnessed an unprecedented construction boom during the early 2000s,
|
||||
|
||||
attracting large numbers of Western expatriates and increasing demand
|
||||
|
||||
for cheap migrant labor. Elite Emiratis'' and Western expatriates''
|
||||
|
||||
dependence on household staff further promoted labor migration. This
|
||||
|
||||
paper offers a summary of existing literature on migrant workers and
|
||||
|
||||
human rights in the UAE, focusing on their impact on related health
|
||||
|
||||
ramifications and disparities, with specific attention to construction
|
||||
|
||||
workers, domestic workers, and trafficked women and children.
|
||||
|
||||
Construction workers and domestic laborers are victims of debt bondage
|
||||
|
||||
and face severe wage exploitation, and experience serious health and
|
||||
|
||||
safety problems resulting from inhumane work and living conditions. High
|
||||
|
||||
rates of physical, sexual, and psychological abuse impact the health of
|
||||
|
||||
domestic workers. Through a review of available literature, including
|
||||
|
||||
official reports, scientific papers, and media reports, the paper
|
||||
|
||||
discusses the responsibility of employers, governments, and the global
|
||||
|
||||
community in mitigating these problems and reveals the paucity of
|
||||
|
||||
systematic data on the health of migrant workers in the Gulf.'
