Where Do Our Wages Go?: A Primer On Excessive And Illegal Fees For Filipino Migrants In Taiwan

---

This book examines the issue of excessive and illegal fees imposed on Filipino migrant workers in Taiwan, particularly during the recruitment and employment process. It explains how various charges, including recruitment fees, agency costs, and other deductions, significantly reduce workers’ earnings and often place them in situations of debt and financial vulnerability. Through analysis of recruitment practices and labor migration systems, the publication highlights how these fees persist despite legal regulations intended to protect migrant workers. The book also aims to raise awareness among migrant workers, advocates, and policymakers about the economic impact of such practices and emphasizes the need for stronger regulation, transparency, and enforcement to ensure fair and ethical recruitment processes.
