Kenyan workers are reportedly among foreign nationals allegedly underpaid and exploited during the construction of a Ksh45.2 billion ($350 million) U.S. consulate project in Milan, Italy.

• Allegations include workers being paid as little as Ksh232 (€1.55) per hour, significantly less than promised salaries.
• The project is managed by U.S.-based Caddell Construction, with Italian prosecutors investigating over 70 workers, including several from Kenya and India.
• Workers reportedly faced threats of dismissal or deportation when questioning pay discrepancies, with one Kenyan electrician stating, "Either you work, or you will be returned to your country."
