Meat the Reality: Unpacking the Exploitation of PALM Scheme Workers in Australia’s Meat Industry is a research report published by RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia.
Authored by Ema Moolchand and Professor Shelley Marshall from the RMIT Business and Human Rights Centre, the report examines the working and living conditions of Pacific Island workers employed in Australia’s meat processing industry under the Pacific Australia Labour Mobility (PALM) scheme.
We were engaged to transform the supplied research content into a professionally formatted 51-page report, creating a structured, readable publication suitable for sharing the research findings with policymakers, industry stakeholders, and the wider community.
