Al Jazeera English published this video item, entitled “Exploited: Filipino Workers in Geneva | 101 East” – below is their description.
Across Geneva, Switzerland, tens of thousands of undocumented Filipino workers cook meals, clean homes and care for wealthy families.
But their own accommodation is a daily struggle.
At the mercy of so-called “slumlords”, they are forced to pay exorbitant rates in a sordid trade in which apartments are rented out by the room. More than 10 people are often crammed in a small one-bedroom flat.
101 East exposes the exploitation of vulnerable Filipino workers in one of the richest countries in the world.
