FIFA has rejected a call from its own advisory body to compensate the workers harmed during the 2022 Qatar World Cup.
The Sub-Committee on Human Rights and Social Responsibility, chaired by Gibraltar’s Attorney General and President of the GFA Michael Llamas, was tasked by FIFA to commission a report so that it could consider compensatory measures for the workers.
However, despite being submitted at the end of last year, FIFA published the report (prepared by the human rights consultancy firm, Human Level) and the Sub-Committee’s Recommendations just days ago—after dismissing its key recommendation.
