Exploitation: Indian migrants found working, living in dark kitchen in Amsterdam

The Dutch Labor Inspectorate announced on Wednesday that it has launched an investigation into possible labor exploitation of kitchen staff

The Dutch Labor Inspectorate announced on Wednesday that it has launched an investigation into possible labor exploitation of kitchen staff in Weesp, Amsterdam. Three Indian workers are reported to have been employed without the required work permits and were allegedly underpaid in cash. The inspectorate discovered the workers during an inspection last week in Weesp, a town officially part of Amsterdam since 2022. They were found working under unhygienic conditions in a so-called dark kitchen, a kitchen that prepares meals exclusively for online orders and home delivery. The workers were even living on the premises, with one person staying in a small storage closet, without sanitary facilities or windows. The working environment was extremely hot and unsuitable for habitation.
