The years 2020 and 2021 proved challenging for migrant workers. Migrant workers were among those hit hardest by the outbreak of the global COVID-19 pandemic. A majority of them were left without jobs and those with jobs were compelled to work under high-risk conditions. Tens of millions of migrant workers were forced to return home empty-handed in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic after turning jobless in countries of destination. By working together to assist migrant workers in distress, PNCC managed to extend support to more than 16,000 migrant workers in destination countries.
