Contact recruiting agencies, not middlemen: Experts
Migration experts at a workshop yesterday advised overseas jobseekers to directly contact recruiting agencies for safe migration instead of middlemen (locally known as dalals) who cause migration costs to rise and other problems.
They also blamed negligence of the authorities concerned in bringing middlemen under the law or making them accountable, says a press release.
A study, “Role of recruiting agencies in the recruitment process to ensure safe migration to prevent human trafficking”, was disseminated at the workshop, organised by Centre for Women and Children Studies (CWCS) in the city's Biam auditorium.
Dr Zafar Ahmed Khan, expatriates' welfare and overseas employment secretary, Riazul Islam, BAIRA vice president, Prof Ishrat Shamim, CWCS president, Hazrat Ali, director general (acting) of Bureau of Manpower Employment and Training, and Sara Piazzanno, chief of party of Winrock International also spoke.
