Alabama ki Caddell Construction ne Milan mein labor exploitation ke case ko solve karne ke liye **€31 Million** ka settlement sign kiya hai. Kareeb **300** workers, jinme se zyadatar Indian hain, unhe bahut kam wage di ja rahi thi.
Labor exploitation ka mamla
Milan mein naye U.S. consulate ke construction site par kaam kar rahi Caddell Construction mushkil mein hai. Investigation mein pata chala ki lagbhag 300 migrant workers (zyadatar India se) ko €2 per hour se bhi kam mil raha tha, jabki Italy mein minimum wage €13.19 per hour hai.
Settlement aur payouts
Is settlement mein €19.7 Million sirf workers ko milenge, jisme kuch workers ko €90,000 tak ka payout mil sakta hai. Baaki paisa social security aur damages mein jayega.
Company ke liye aage ki chinta
Sirf paisa dena kaafi nahi hai! Caddell Construction abhi bhi court-appointed administration ke under hai, jiska matlab hai ki har chhota-bada decision judicial oversight mein hoga. Isse project delay aur cost badhne ka risk hai.
Sabse bada khatra ye hai ki civil case solve hone ke baad bhi, company aur uske 2 managers par criminal proceedings chal rahi hain. Government contracts milna mushkil ho sakta hai, kyunki ethical standards ka mamla hai. Italian authorities ne 265 workers ko special residence permits bhi diye hain, aur ye pura case ab Europe mein migrant rights ka ek major example ban chuka hai.
