Resource Details: How do we care for and protect vulnerable workers in the midst of COVID-19? It has overwhelmed the world, impacting the life of every worker and their family. While some may have stopped work or continued their work from home to lessen the spread of infection, many migrant and immigrant workers have very little choice but to keep working, increasing their vulnerability.
