Damien interviewed Lisa (not her real name) who suffered many months of sexual harassment by her manager and felt completely helpless until the introduction of the new visa. One of the first exploited migrant workers to obtain the visa, she can now pursue a legal claim here.

Our survey empowers migrants with info about their rights & where to go for help, and enables them to share their experiences to drive change. Know anyone who has worked in Australia on a visa in the past 15 years? Encourage them to take the survey:

From this week, exploited migrants who have breached the work rights on their visa can pursue redress against their employer with a guarantee their visa won’t be cancelled. (2/3). @RLC__News @SMLS_clc @IARCAustralia @ACRATHumans @AMES_Australia @AntiSlaveryOz.@SydneyCatholic.
