A recent immigrant to New Zealand, Haesol Yuk, was discovered to have been exploited by her company, working six days a week for 12-hour shifts without pay. Yuk had arrived in the country from South Korea with her family in 2019 when her husband was appointed the pastor of the Jesus Aroma Church Trust. One of the church trustees, Victoria Jean (also known as Jong Ai Park), was the director and shareholder of Elev 8, which managed multiple cosmetic businesses in Dunedin. Yuk accepted Jean’s suggestion to take a massage course, but without a working visa, she was told she had to work until her husband’s visa was processed. She worked 72 hours per week for 42 days without pay, and her duties included opening the shops, cleaning, washing towels and sheets, and performing massages. Jean was previously fined NZ$164,000 (US$102,582) for exploiting two other vulnerable migrant workers. In Australia, the government plans to protect migrant workers by raising the Temporary Skilled Migration Income Threshold. However, around three-quarters of migrant workers earn below the casual minimum wage in Australia, and a quarter earn less than half of that. Additionally, they are reluctant to report underpayment due to fear of losing their visas.
