It should be mentioned; Poverty and unemployment have increased the phenomenon of migrant workers in Kurdistan, and despite the lack of job security in Iraqi Kurdistan, workers with low and meager salaries are engaged in hard work, and due to this fatigue and lack of security, they cause such accidents, and despite this work insurance. It is not considered for these workers either.
