Exploitation
The Kidderminster based Consulate of the Republic of Poland has expressed concern at "the growing number of allegations concerning the exploitation of Polish workers in the Kidderminster area".
Polish Consul for the West Midlands Cllr Mike Oborski said today "the allegations relate to housing, pay and terms of employment".
Cllr Oborski said "we have become aware of:-
incidents of illegal overcrowding in rented rooms by unscrupulous landlords;companies paying high hourly rates to agencies which only pass on the minimum wage to the workers concerned - without the knowledge of the companies concerned;workers being paid for lewss hours than they have worked by employers who have first misled them over employment law and requirements so putting them in a position where they are also in the wrong and therefore find it difficult to complain;employment on non-English speaking "care" workers on inadequate pay with little or no training.
