...Ensuring that migrants are not left behind is essential to achieving the objectives of the sustainable development goals (SDGs) and the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration (GCM). This report aims to examine how documented migrant workers become undocumented during employment in Malaysia, with a specific focus on the manufacturing sector and on migrant workers from Bangladesh, Indonesia and Nepal.

Pre-departure and post-arrival orientations must be made mandatory for all workers to know their rights and equip them with sufficient knowledge and information to make informed decisions and navigate life in a new country...
