Regardless of what their status is, most migrants have to take any job they can find. Many African men work as migrant workers on fruit and vegetable plantations. Women without a family usually only find jobs in the lowest service sector or in prostitution.

On average, a daily wage for 12 - 14 hours work is 25 Euros. However, the workers can usually only find work a few days each month.
