Association for the Rights of Industrial Accident Victims

The Association for the Rights of Industrial Accident Victims (ARIAV) is a Hong Kong-based organization that advocates for the rights of workers who have been injured on the job. The group recently sent an organizer, Esther Tse Yan-yin, to Indonesia to support families of domestic helpers killed in a fire and to help them navigate the compensation process from Hong Kong authorities. Recently, there were reports of another workplace accident involving an air-conditioner technician who fell from a ladder in Tsuen Wan, highlighting the ongoing need for workers' rights advocacy in Hong Kong. ARIAV's work is significant as it seeks to protect the rights and well-being of vulnerable workers in Hong Kong's informal economy.
