Labour Cabinet Secretary Alfred Mutua on Monday, December 9, announced plans to develop a mobile App that will help migrant workers facing mistreatment away to contact the government easily.

In a statement on X, CS Mutua said that this was in a bid to facilitate safe, legal, and dignified migration pathways especially for Kenyans.

“To further support our migrant workers, we are planning on developing an innovative mobile app that will address distress matters for those who might find themselves in danger or require any form of assistance.

“This app will provide a direct line to the government, ensuring timely interventions and protection for our people,” said Mutua.

The government plans to reach this goal through partnerships and bilateral agreements that Mutua said have already opened doors for thousands of Kenyans to work abroad.

Speaking at the Jamhuri National Jobs Fair at KICC, the CS also reiterated that even though labour export was a great resource for Kenya, no citizen was being forced to fly out for greener pastures.
