Horizon With Labour

And, the number is only growing as industries face shortage of workers. With the recent incidents of crime related to migrant workers in the district, there is an effort to create a database of migrant workers. However, officials, trade unions, and industries feel the State needs to come out with a policy framework for migrant workers.
