    “These include a strict compliance to the $400 minimum salary; the passport should be in the possession of the worker at all times; one day off a week; and freedom to communicate with the family, and liberty to possess their own mobile phone to call their loved ones.”
    Based on those objectives I have to agree with you there Graham

    I do understand that many have good, secure and safe environments with good employers....but there are far too many that are not.
    IMHO
