“The labor rights of migrant workers globally, especially of those in essential sectors, must be guaranteed and measures are taken to protect their health,” stated Can Ünver, chair of the UN Committee on Migrant Workers, and Felipe González Morales, UN Special Rapporteur on Migrant Workers’ Human Rights. Experts call for the protection of migrants’ rights, including access to their homelands and rescue efforts for those in crisis at sea and international boundaries, in 17 global governance guidelines. Furthermore, an international organization like the UNHCR encourages governments to integrate all migrant workers into a national COVID-19 preventive and response plan, including providing all social services. The purpose of this study is to discuss the living situations of migrant populations around the world (undocumented, documented workers, refugees, and minorities). Documentary analysis was used to complete the methodology. The paper aims to learn about international workers’ rights and how to safeguard them legally. How do migrant workers protect themselves from unpredictable conditions is the central subject of the paper?
