Many major Human rights groups are challenging sporting body FIFA to compensate migrant workers from Qatar, in a $440 million dollar payout

Human rights groups, including Amnesty International, are urging FIFA to compensate Qatar workers.

They allege the workers suffered human rights abuses in preparations for World Cup tournaments in the country.

They want FIFA to “establish a comprehensive program to ensure all labor abuses to which FIFA contributed are” rectified and prevented from happening again.

They want workers to be compensated back to when FIFA awarded hosting rights to Qatar in 2010. They allege the sporting body didn’t push for any improvement in labor protections.

The Government is Qatar has consistently been under fire for many years over its alleged human rights abuses. These include withholding pay and charging workers to change jobs.
