Find help near you

Choose your country and who you are (fisher, seasonal worker, domestic worker). You will see labour ministries, union centres, labour sending units and — for seasonal workers — help in Australia and New Zealand.

We only list organisations and contact details we could check on an official or credible page. Where we could not check something, we say so. Numbers change, so if one does not work, tell us.
