Donate Today – Help Migrant Workers Receive The Compensation They Are Due
I only received overtime my first year. After that they refused to give overtime and began deducting from our wages for different reasons. We ended up getting less than what was written in our contracts. When government inspections took place, they showed them salary books that showed that they were paying us properly for overtime and other extras.

During our 18 month investigation, the Equidem team came across hundreds of workers that worked on the World Cup stadiums who are still owed their wages. The non-payment of workers took various guises: some workers were not paid their monthly salary for months on end; while there are still other workers, who were never paid for their overtime labour. Workers also faced the non-payment of end-of-service benefits and deductions for sick leave. Equidem’s investigation is a strong indicator that there are thousands of workers who have still not been paid their wages, and we request contributions towards finding and helping these workers finally get the compensation owed to them.
Please contribute whatever you can. Every dollar spent here will go towards helping workers receive the compensation they are owed.
Donate today and help the migrant workers who made this world cup possible, finally get their dues.
