Migrant women workers have experienced workplace sexual harassment: Explainer 19 November

A new national survey has revealed more than half ((51%)) of the migrant women workers interviewed have experienced workplace sexual harassment but were afraid to report it. Unions New South Wales interviewed more than 3,300 ((3,388)) women of migrant backgrounds - mostly women on temporary visas ((83%)). Seventy-five percent of those women say they didn't report the incidents, as they feared retribution. Listen to the SBS Sinhala explainer for more information.
