About this Session

Responsible recruitment challenges are global and long-standing. Learning from the depth and breadth of work in Asia with business, government and non-profits is essential to advancing the provision of decent work for migrant workers. This session explores a range of approaches to advancing responsible recruitment in supply chains, learning from projects providing hands-on support to human resource and management teams through to collaborative action projects that put policy into practice.
