Realising Integration: Migrant Workers Undertaking Essential Low Paid Work in Dublin City

This project was initiated by MRCI, with support from Dublin City Development Board, in order to identify the situation of migrant workers undertaking low-paid work in a number of essential sectors in the city, to highlight their integration needs and acknowledge their importance in the future development of Dublin city. The sectors examined were hospitality, manual labour within construction, retail, cleaning and care work, all of which underpin the effective functioning of the city. It is hoped that this small-scale scoping exercise will contribute to the development of a strategy for the inclusion and integration of migrant workers and their families in Dublin.
