Dhaka Principles for migration with dignity

The Dhaka Principles have been developed by the Institute for Human Rights and Business (IHRB) following extensive consultation, and are supported by business, governments, trade unions and civil society. They were first unveiled to the public at a roundtable on migration in Dhaka, Bangladesh, in June 2011. They are based on the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights and international human rights principles. The Dhaka Principles outline the worker's roadmap from recruitment through employment to termination, providing key principles that employers and recruiters of migrant workers must adhere to in order to ensure migration with dignity.
