A report commisioned by the E Tu Union group has revealed migrant workers moving to New Zealand in search of work within the construction industry, especially those of Filipino descent, are being unfairly paid and treated. Many of the workers find they are being upto 16$ less than their native Kiwi counterparts, for perfroming the same tasks and work. Tuwhenuaroa spoke to Ron Angel, Industry Coordiantor at E Tu about some the conditions migrants workers face, and how they affect their lives here in New Zealand.
