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 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 .
