Australia: Report finds undocumented workers in horticulture industry are prone to Covid-19 infection due to substandard & overcrowded accommodations
A report by Associate Professor Joanna Howe from University of Adelaide and Dr Ankur Singh from University of Melbourne, Covid-19 and Undocumented Workers in the Australian Horticulture Industry, finds that undocumented workers are prone to a high risk of infection. Their substandard and overcrowded accommodation and their social and economic circumstances place them at risk of low compliance to physical distancing and are unlikely to opt for testing and assist in contact tracing.
