abstract: 'Domestic work, as one of the most feminised occupations in existence, is
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
also one of those least likely to offer a prospect of equal treatment
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
with workers in other sectors. Notably, live-in domestic workers are
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
regularly excluded from even the most fundamental entitlements such as
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
that to an hourly minimum wage. The rise of an international industry
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
organising live-in care work for the frail and disabled brings the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
questions of how to regulate this sector back to the table also and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
especially in the most affluent countries. Departing from a prominent
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
recent court decision in Germany, the contribution explores how
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
jurisdictions around the globe approach the key legal questions
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
determining the labour rights of live-ins. On this basis, it offers a
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
discussion of the way forward in a policy area which urgently requires
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
an honest discussion of how to balance conflicting vital interest of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
different disadvantaged groups in a fair and realistic way.'
