Summary
This report is an output of an interview and desktop research called ‚Findings from a Migration Mapping Study: Thai Migrant Workers in the Czech Republic‛. The mapping aims to describe the real picture of employment of Thai migrant workers here, in the Czech Republic. The main objective of this mapping is to assess whether the Thai workers are in need of assistance from the side of NGOs regarding the issues related to working conditions and employment generally, issues related to exploitation and access to worker's/migrant's/ human rights and issues related to migration status. The findings will serve to NGOs and particularly to La Strada in order to assess, how can the NGOs offer their services to Thai migrant workers and which kind of services and information can be useful for Thai workers in the Czech Republic, mainly those who are at risk of exploitation, abuse or human trafficking and whose rights are violated.
