%X This article examines the systemic exploitation of foreign workers on temporary visas at 7-Eleven stores. The first section outlines Australia's temporary visa apparatus and the restrictions it imposes on visa workers¡¯ residency and work rights. The second section reviews the ¡®7-Eleven cases¡¯, from 2011 to 2016, and draw three themes from those cases. The final section considers the Fair Work Amendment (Protecting Vulnerable Workers) Act 2017 (Cth). Ultimately, I contend that parliament's failure to address temporary migrant workers¡¯ fear of visa cancellation may blunt the impact of these otherwise significant reforms
