The report thoroughly analysed the ILO Conventions that the GoN has/not ratified, with comparative studies of national policy in Nepal as well as a number of recommendations and developments proposed to help bring the status of migrant workers in line with international standards. The study recommended the GoN to ratify ILO conventions related to Private Employment Agencies to curtail deceitful and exploitative practices in the recruitment stage; to set clear standards and procedures for labour inspection; and to eliminate existing legislative and administrative restrictions that limit the rights of domestic workers, among others.
