• Amnesty says Fifa has ‘not effectively investigated the issue’
• Claims of migrants working 12-hour shifts for up to 38 days

Amnesty International has accused Fifa and the Qatari authorities of failing to properly address a “pattern of abuse against migrant workers” at the World Cup, some of whom worked 12-hour shifts for up to 38 days in succession without any time off.

A new investigation from the human rights body also found that some workers who were hired as security guards and marshals had to pay illegal recruitment fees – that were never repaid – and had promised overtime pay and bonuses withheld.
