Domestic workers seek to tidy up industry

by Yim Sothy — last modified May 16, 2015 05:59 PM

It took domestic worker Chay Sominea, 31, about a year and a half before she summoned the courage to ask her employer for two days off per month. "I was not brave to negotiate with the owner to have workers' rights" she said. She works 14 hours a day for $120 a month. Low wages, long hours and unfair treatment continue to plague domestic workers in the Kingdom, say campaigners who are leading the push for change in the industry.

Domestic workers push for protections

by Yim Sothy — last modified May 16, 2015 05:59 PM

Forty national and foreign NGOs yesterday called on the government to ratify the International Labour Organization’s 2011 Domestic Workers Convention in order to better safeguard the rights of Cambodian domestic workers, both inside and outside of the country. The missive, which says that the Kingdom’s domestic workers currently enjoy no protection under the law, was signed by the rights groups Licadho, the Cambodian Legal Education Center and the Cambodia Domestic Worker Network (CDWN), among others. Allegations of abuse are not uncommon among maids in Cambodia or abroad. Maids working in Malaysia have returned with numerous accounts of grave abuses. Under the ILO convention, domestic workers are entitled to decent working and living conditions, days off, the right to collective bargaining, and “protection against all forms of abuse, harassment and violence”.

Domestic Workers are Workers!!

Domestic Workers are Workers!!

by Sonia Rani — last modified May 16, 2015 05:59 PM

It was a great moment when domestic workers congregated on a single platform to raise a voice for their rights. Collective power makes a movement ideal and help to organize lots of people. Organizing domestic workers and ensuring dignity for them, SEWA Trade Unions commenced a rally on the occasion of International Domestic Workers Day. The rally was organized in New Ashok Nagar, Delhi. The objective behind the rally was to sensitize Domestic Workers and create awareness among the general public about the rights of Domestic Workers. Around 168 Domestic Workers from Delhi participated from different area’s like: Anand Vihar, Timarpur, Raghuvir Nagar, Dhallu Pura, Hasan pur and New Ashok Nagar in the great movement. The rally started from the community of domestic workers and ended in posh areas where our lots of domestic workers go for domestic works on daily basis. A role play was enacted during the rally by some SEWA Sathis to make rally innovative and informative. The rally started from Ruaab Center (SEWA) New Ashok Nagar and ended at Vasundhara Enclave. Domestic Workers were marching chanting slogans and reaching out with their voice for their rights. Slogans: “Chaar Chotiyon ka adhikaar ho Samanata ka vyvhaar ho” “Trade Unions ka yahi hai sapna Gharalu kaamgaar manch ho apna” All the domestic workers were exited and delighted to be part of the rally on Domestic Workers Day. They are calling Govt. to ratify ILO Convention 189 and also demanding to secure their future by ratifying the convention. By organizing and participating in such rally’s, domestic workers are utilizing a constructive to put across their demand for ratification of ILO Convention 189. This rally was a good initiative to cover large number of people and create awareness on domestic workers rights.
