Samuel Zuluaga, a 23-year-old migrant worker in Australia, faced exploitation in his job at a barber shop, including underpayment and denial of superannuation benefits. His experience highlights a broader issue affecting temporary visa holders, as reported by the Migrant Justice Institute, which found that nearly two-thirds of surveyed workers experienced underpayment. The report estimated that international students alone are losing more than $60 million in wages weekly. In response to these challenges, the New South Wales government has launched the Migrant Workers Centre, which will provide support to vulnerable workers facing exploitation and unsafe working conditions. With $6.5 million in funding over four years, the center aims to assist approximately 2,000 at-risk workers annually, offering culturally sensitive services to help them understand and enforce their rights. NSW Premier Chris Minns emphasized the importance of the center in ensuring that migrant workers know where to seek help if they face workplace issues. Community leaders have welcomed this initiative, noting the critical role of migrant workers in the economy and the need for increased awareness of their rights.
