Regional study on defining recruitment fees and related costs: The Americas

This regional study was developed as part of a global comparative study on the definition of recruitment fees and related costs, which was prepared in 2018 to support discussion at a Tripartite Meeting of Experts on Defining Recruitment Fees and Costs, held in November 2018. The definition was approved by the ILO Governing Body in March 2019. The definition is to be read alongside the General Principles and Operational Guidelines for Fair Recruitment.
