Title

Domestic Workers in India ― Their cause of difficulties, their organizations and challenges 

Bibliography Type

Sole Author

Summary

Domestic workers in India are particularly vulnerable to exploitation in the informal sector because of their close relationship with employers "in the home", which is rooted in class differences, and the isolation of each worker. Despite attempts to organize and legislate domestic workers since the 1950s, the difficulty of organizing has prevented them from improving their status.
