Often informal \nand part-time\, it happens in private homes and is stigmatized as\n“wome n’s work.” As a result\, many domestic workers are ignored when\nit comes to their rights. Labour standards are difficult to enforce\nwhen one works alone in a private home\, where compensation for\non-the-job accidents or illness doesn’t exist.\nIn theory and in law\, domestic workers in Quebec are covered by\nthe same Labour Standards as all other employees. But the reality\nis something else.\n91˿Ƶ School of Social Work Professor Jill Hanley launches a\nreport on the findings of a community-based survey on t he\noften-dangerous working conditions of domestic workers\, in\ncollabora tion with PINAY\, the Filipino Women’s Organization in\nQuebec.\nWHO: Prof .
