Migrant Workers in Italy
Migrant workers in Italy play a crucial role in various sectors, particularly in agriculture, construction, and domestic services. Many come from countries such as Albania, Morocco, and Romania, seeking better economic opportunities. They often fill labor shortages and contribute significantly to the Italian economy.
Despite their contributions, migrant workers face challenges, including legal barriers, exploitation, and limited access to social services. Many work in informal settings, which can lead to precarious living conditions. Efforts are ongoing to improve their rights and working conditions through policy changes and support from non-governmental organizations.
