The COVID-19 Crisis Underscores the Need for Sustainable Domestic Worker Protections
Dear Friends —
On this Labor Day, we choose to celebrate domestic workers who are essential workers today and have been throughout history. These workers, predominantly immigrants and women of color, have been severely impacted by COVID-19 as they work on the frontlines of this pandemic. We’re excited to share our new policy brief that highlights the integral role domestic workers play in the care economy and the critical need for stronger labor protections for these workers, particularly during the pandemic.
Our brief, The COVID-19 Crisis Underscores the Need for Sustainable Domestic Worker Protections:
*
Provides
an
overview
of
how
systemic
racism
and
sexism
in
public
policy
has
limited
the
rights
and
benefits
of
domestic
workers;
*
Illustrates
the
severe
implications
the
ongoing
pandemic
has
had
on
domestic
and
care
work
using
survey
data
from
the
National
Domestic
Worker
Alliance
(NDWA);
and
*
Details
the
necessity
of
comprehensive
protections
and
rights
for
domestic
workers
through
policy
solutions
like
the
Domestic
Worker
Bill
of
Rights.
As we reflect on the achievements and contributions of workers around the United States this Labor Day, let’s remember to celebrate the workers who play a vital role supporting our families and homes.
Please consider sharing this new brief on social media using these sample posts:
