Uganda is one of the largest migration corridors in the world. In fact it’s estimated that over 1 million Ugandans are working in countries like Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Qatar as of 2021. Many are employed in low-profile jobs such as security guards, cleaners, barristers, drivers, house maids etc. Oftentimes, these workers are paid for their hard work and provided with food and housing for their services. But, that’s not always the case in a few isolated incidences.
The less fortunate Ugandan migrant workers are victims of hazardous labor or even labor trafficking. They have no safety net, social security protection, welfare mechanisms, or labor rights. Many of these victims are lured by job agents’ on promises of good pay, easy work, and foreign labor sponsorship. Yet, reality tells us this is not the case. Most victims find themselves trapped in low-paying domestic jobs, working up to 15-hours a day and having to endure verbal or physical abuse by some of their would be bosses.
Thus the need to prepare and orient prospective migrant workers for employment abroad through government initiating pre-departure orientation trainings by all domestic service workers (house maids). Inaries Training Centre is born out of the need to heed this call as we believe shall be a major player in this industry owing to its reputation in related ventures.
