The LLDRL and Oppenheimer Chair jointly organized a lecture by Gabriela Medici on the legislative precariousness of domestic care work in Switzerland. Medici was then a D.C.L. candidate at 成人VR视频's Faculty of Law and member of the LLDRL.

Her presentation related the growing international discourse on the impact of human rights on labour law to the current Swiss constitutional and labour regulatory framework for domestic workers. Over the past years, the discursive recognition of core labour rights in the form of positive state obligations to regulate and implement traditional civil rights guarantees, procedural guarantees, and the prohibition of discrimination has grown. During the lecture, Medici argued that, while this development has helped to counterbalance the legislative precariousness of migrant caregivers in Swiss households, the safeguarding of core labour rights through positive state obligations has inherent limitations.

The LLDRL and Oppenheimer Chair jointly听organized a lecture by Bethany Hastie, then-D.C.L. candidate at 成人VR视频's Faculty of Law, on听migrant labour and the ins and outs of Canada's Temporary Foreign Worker Programs.听

This presentation engaged听in a critical inquiry of the TFWPs, examining how the regulatory structure of these Programs contributes to a state of unfreedom for migrant workers. The regulatory structure of the TFWPs and specific measures under the programs which produce conditions of unfreedom for migrant workers were examined, including: employer-specific work permit; limits on participation and time in Canada;听lack of access to permanent residency; jurisdictional limitations. Ultimately, this presentation argued that the regulatory regime governing the TFWPs operates largely at the expense of migrant workers鈥� rights, contributes to听precariousness, and fails to live up to the promise of the 鈥渢riple win鈥� scenario.
