This article examines the barriers migrant workers face in accessing justice, including the ability to assert legal rights in the workplace, and to access mechanisms for legal redress or remedy. Drawing on empirical research, and using the capabilities approach as a conceptual framework through which to examine these issues, this article demonstrates that the regulatory structure of the Temporary Foreign Worker Programs operates to actively constrain the ability for migrant workers to assert their rights in the workplace, and seek effective legal remedies in the face of rights violations.

The right to social security is recognised as a basic human right in a number of international instruments. While most nations give recognition to social security rights and generally enforce them within the dictates of domestic legislation to their nationals, the narrative is different for non-nationals, particularly the migrant worker. The article examines the measures that have been deployed at international and regional levels to protect the social security rights of migrant workers, with particular attention to the regular ones. It argues that a number of factors, including the doctrines of territoriality and nationality, account for the marginalisation of the migrant worker in the enforcement of these rights. Some migrant-specific international instruments and series of bilateral and multilateral agreements to overcome these perceived challenges are being hindered by the low number of ratifying countries and disparities in the design and level of development of schemes for specific branches of social security across countries. The article concludes that the social security right of the migrant worker would be enhanced if more countries ratify, domesticate and enforce relevant international instruments on the social security rights of the migrant worker and complement same by a much more coordinated bilateral and multilateral social security agreements.

AbstractToraja culture with its authenticity makes this culture unique and cannot even be found in other areas. This uniqueness and authenticity is what makes Toraja culture known to foreign countries. Culture includes a way of thinking and a way of acting. This is characteristic of certain societies. This study aims to (1) find out the development of the Ma'nene 'ritual for the Toraja people and (2) to know the symbolic meaning contained in the Ma'nene' ritual. Ma'nene 'is a tradition of the ancestors of the Toraja people, namely the procession of changing ancestral clothes. This research is qulitative descriptive research. Research informants are determined by non?probability sampling. Primary data is carried out through observation and interviews with parties related to the research and secondary data is carried out through library research by reviewing some literature which isclosely related to the issues to be discussed. The data that has been collected is then presented in the form of realism narrative and analyzed qualitatively. The results showed that (1) the development of Ma'nene 'rituals that are still being carried out in the Toraja area until now has experienced many changes when compared to the Ma'nene' rituals that were carried out in the past. This is inseparable from the influence of the new religion adopted by the local community at this time which then replaced the previous religion, namely Aluk Todolo. (2) the meaning of Ma'nene 'for the Toraja people is through the ritual of caring for ancestral corpses carried out in this ritual, which is reflected in an attitude of continuing to love, respect and honor ancestral services.Keywords: makna, ritual, Ma’nene’, Toraja

Language teaching to migrant workers in The Netherlands needs an improvement in two ways. Apart from various problems with regard to the environment in which the teaching of Dutch to foreign workers takes place, this type of language training also suffers from serious inadequacies in the linguistic and methodological field. This paper discusses a few of these latter problems pertaining to both the teacher and the learner, i.e. the foreign worker. With regard to the -- usually unpaid and voluntary -- teacher, we point out such factors as - inexperience with the teaching of a second language and the consequen-ces of such a situation - disparity between the language of the teacher and the dialect/sociolect of the environment in which the foreign worker finds himself; a dispa-rity because of the socio-cultural gap between the two - discrepancy between certain features in the teacher's dialect and those of the standard language in the teaching method - use of 'foreigner talk' in the class situation With regard to the learner we diseuse euch matters as - expectation of the foreign worker when learning the language of his new country of residence; an expectation which to a great extent diffe, from what can objectively be defined as learning objectives - lack of contact with speakers of Butch resulting in a low level of oral proficiency by the foreign worker - problems relating to 'Pidgin'--Dutch The language department of Netherlands Centre Foreigners is engaged in developping language materiale for migrant workers and their families, in particular for those who are speakers of 'Pidgin'-Dutch. Certain preliminary considerations concerning this teaching method are dis-cussed.

AbstractThe lived, and oftentimes silenced, experiences of "foreign workers" articulate the negotiation of power relations between "citizen" and "foreigner", and "Us" and "Them". These are translated into discursive practices that, in effect, legitimize and entrench differences — hence, inequalities — that effectively discipline the "foreign worker" as "not one of Us". By taking the example of Bangladeshi construction workers in Singapore as a case study, I argue in this paper that the workspaces of "foreign construction workers" in Singapore typify that of a "total institution", which correspondingly moulds the worker into a discursive ideal — the "good, docile Other". Such impositions and productions of Otherness, however, face rupture as workers (re)negotiate, (re)work, and (re)inscribe their everyday lives through the employment of what James Scott (1985, 1987) terms "everyday 'resistances'" in rising above that which subjugates them. I will present in this paper primary data elicited and collated from direct participant observation, fieldwork, and in-depth interviews conducted in a construction project in Singapore.

Abstract Background Colombia has an insurance-based, private and public health care system, with the intermediation of health insurance agencies that control the resources. At present, the Universal Health Coverage (UHC) is around 97%. However, there is wide scientific evidence that criticizes the structure and operation of the system due to the persistent differences between the UHC indicator and real accessibility to health services. This study aimed to analyze the concept of accessibility of health services in order to design and validate alternatives instruments for its assessment beyond UHC. Methods A mixed methods approach with concurrent design in three phases was conducted between 2014 and 2017: 1) systematic review of literature and documentary research; 2) design, content validation with experts and pilot test of instruments to assess health care accessibility and 3) definition of a route to assess accessibility. Results The reviewed literature revealed five conceptual logics to define accessibility: decent minimum of health care, health care market, factors and multicausality, needs and, social justice and human right to health. A Household Survey on Accessibility to Health Care Services and a Health Care Services Availability Questionnaire was designed and validated with experts and pilot test in representative samples of households and care centers in three cities in Colombia was conducted. Those instruments were designed under the conceptual logic of human right to health. Finally, an alternative route to assess accessibility in Colombia was proposed. Conclusions The route for assessing accessibility with primary data, territorial approach and without intermediation of health insurance agencies allow obtaining an overview of the real situation beyond the UHC indicator. The instruments included in this assessing process can be useful to monitor progress in guaranteeing the human right to health, declared in Colombia and other countries. Key messages The UHC indicator is not enough to assess real accessibility to health services. This study presents an alternative route and two validated instruments for its assessment with primary data and territory-based approach, applicable to countries with public-private health systems.

This study used questionnaire method to obtain the primary data from migrant workers. The sampling technique was non-random sampling which was accidental sampling technique. The data analysis used was Chi-Square analysis. The result shows that: 1) partially, there is relationship between ages and personal financial management; 2) there is a relationship between financial literacy and personal financial management; 3) partially, there is no relationship between academic background and number of dependents with personal financial management.

Abstract The Government of Uganda is a party to numerous international and national commitments, laws and regulatory frameworks to deliver the socio-economic transformation of its citizens. Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) commit states, Uganda inclusive, to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all by 2030. According to the SDG 6 resolutions, the rights to water and sanitation are legally binding upon states, which have the primary responsibility to ensure their full realization, including unserved and under-served areas. While the SDGs came into force after 2015, it is not clear the extent to which Uganda's policies, legal instruments and practice are aligned to the SDGs. A combined methodology was adopted to undertake the study under a cross-sectional design. The study reviewed relevant literature such as sector performance reports on water and sanitation. Purposive sampling was used to select relevant informants for primary data. Key informant interviews were held with representatives of relevant government agencies, United Nations agencies, civil society organisations, indigenous communities and the private sector. Findings indicate that while the Government of Uganda has made tremendous efforts regarding the right to water and sanitation, enormous challenges and gaps remain. For instance, the pro-poor strategies to access safe water, sanitation and hygiene facilities are largely insignificant.
