Founded in 2012, HelperChoice is the first social impact startup dedicated to eradicating placement fees and human trafficking for the purpose of forced labour. Its impact has been recognised by many organisations, including the International Labour Organisation.
For years, migrant domestic workers have been vulnerable to exploitation due to the unethical practices of employment agencies such as: charging illegal and exorbitant placement fees. Furthermore, most workers are not in a position to choose their employer.
By empowering foreign domestic workers through an online platform that allows them to find jobs for free, HelperChoice facilitated more than 50,000 recruitments and estimates that more than 60 million euros of illegal placement fees were saved.
HelperChoice provides an online platform, we aim to improve foreign domestic workers' living and working conditions, enable millions of migrant domestic workers to have access to the job market for free, and foster the disappearance of unethical recruitment agencies.
