The burgeoning importance of domestic work in paid employment in our country makes it all the more essential to make sure that such task is given prestige and takes place under fair conditions with sufficient remuneration. Presently, due to the personalized nature of such task, the simplicity of majority contracts and the complication of examining conditions, as well as the commonly inimical labor market conditions, majority such task happens under enormously challenging and brutal conditions, with reduced pay, little or no restrictions on working hours, lack of independence and dignity for workers, and almost nothing in the form of worker security or social protection.
There are intermittent headline-grabbing outrages in the media regarding the ill treatment given to domestic help, however provided the unequal rights outlining the relationship and the deficiency of other task options in multiple places, these may well be the edge of the iceberg. The abrupt hardships in examining what is importantly a casual arrangement turn things much worse. It is unluckily the case that as long as total efficient employment generation stays so listless, there will be ongoing pressures on male as well female workers that can compel them to obtain working conditions that are needy and even at times demeaning.
But, public policy as well as labor mobilization can play roles in enhancing such conditions even when the overall employment scheme is dreary. Currently, domestic workers are not safeguarded by almost all labor acts. None of the primary national labor rules are relevant to them, although they have lately been embraced in the Unorganized Worker’s Social Security Act, 2008.
Admitting domestic help under the facilitations of Minimum Wages legislation can play some role in enhancing the play of these workers. It is a reality that such minimum wage act is more boosted in the breach in India, where the conditions of more labour supply and bad generation of fair work opportunities have consolidated to build anguish on the part of those involving in such task. Even so, protection under the minimum wage laws embraces the bargaining power of domestic help and can start to pony up the enhancement in their working conditions. Mostly such acts and even official determination of domestic help as economic activity that should be subjected to labour rules and offer some degree of labour security has not showed up on its own as a “present” from officialdom, but has culminated from continued efforts at mobilization or workers and canvassing the government. In country, minimum wages are identified by state governments and there is wide difference in protection as well as level of wages across states.
