WorkFair – Protecting Migrant Employment Rights

About WorkFair

A group of Irish legal practitioners have come together to offer a voluntary service for immigrant workers to combat a perceived lack of access to the legal system. The service will offer basic legal advice and representation. Work Fair will initially operate for a six-month pilot phase from January to June 2008 to assess demand and fine-tune service models.

What can WorkFair do for you?

WorkFair is a new labour rights initiative providing legal advice and representation to migrant workers in Ireland at risk of exploitation in the workplace.
