About the International Fair Work Compliance Group (IFWCG)

Washington, D.C., USA

The International Fair Work Compliance Group (IFWCG) is an independent organization dedicated to monitoring wage violations, irregular labor practices, and unlawful withholding of earned compensation around the world. We document cases, verify evidence, and engage directly with employers to seek fair, just, and timely resolutions for affected workers.

Our mission is grounded in the belief that every worker, regardless of location or legal status, has the fundamental right to receive full payment for their labor. Wage theft is a global issue that disproportionately harms vulnerable individuals, and our work focuses on bringing transparency, accountability, and oversight to environments where these protections are lacking.

What We Do

  • Investigate wage non-payment and sudden business closures that leave workers unpaid
  • Collect and review evidence, including testimonies, documentation, and work records
  • Contact employers directly to facilitate case resolution
  • Monitor ongoing disputes and track compliance outcomes
  • Collaborate with international partners and local labor organizations where appropriate

Our Approach

We follow a structured review process that balances evidence verification with direct outreach. This includes:

  1. Case Intake – Workers or advocates submit reports through our contact channels.
  2. Evidence Review – Our team collects and verifies supporting documentation.
  3. Employer Outreach – We contact the business or representative to seek a resolution.
  4. Ongoing Monitoring – If unresolved, the case is tracked and updated until closure.

Our organization operates independently and is not affiliated with any government, political group, or private-sector entity. This independence allows us to maintain neutrality, fairness, and integrity in every investigation we undertake.

Our Commitment

IFWCG is committed to upholding global fair-work principles by advocating for those who have been denied the wages they rightfully earned. We continue to expand our reach across regions where labor protections remain limited, ensuring that wage violations do not go unseen or unanswered.

If you are seeking assistance or would like to report a potential labor violation, we encourage you to contact our team for review.
