PAXU^®

Factory workers, especially those from rural areas, can struggle obtaining trustworthy information. H, a regular user of PAXU, credits the app with providing her information about how she can identify and better protect herself from exploitative situations such as forced labor and illegal recruitment practices. She shared that, from now on, when looking for a new job, she made sure to consider and compare the living costs between locations because it could significantly affect her take-home salary. H. also introduced PAXU appt to other friends and family, especially those she knew were already looking for jobs abroad but likely did not know about the risks.

“I found PAXU’s Budgeting and Insights section particularly useful for my daily life. As a student living away from home, I find it important to properly manage my savings and expenses and am grateful that there is an app to help me with this. The Insight articles also help me improve my skills and better understand issues such as human trafficking and forced labor. I think this information will help me be better prepared for the workforce as I will graduate soon and will need to look for a job.”

T, a factory worker, credited PAXU’s unique calculators with helping her make safer migration decisions by teaching her about different salaries and living costs around the world. Previously, she was planning to find a job abroad but completely changed her mind after using the app. “I was so excited about the job opportunity that I ignored the potential risks. PAXU helped me better evaluate it and I decided not to go. It takes courage to make tough decisions and I think I was brave not to take the job.”
