“When I asked for a lot, I kept on a group. It was the way I began to humble me. I shut me off and shut up a team,” says south.

Later paid – 1,000 rupees [$11; £9] For one month steak, brushing and brushing dishes – after a single family. But they were safe to join the house, and did not find it difficult to go to the police when they believed that they did not.

The story of a mm and one of hundreds of hundreds of accounts Persecution, cruelty and immorality was foretold by family workers. Most are women and many move in cities, living in the arkers that are monitored.

The last month, the Great India’s Court of India caused their problems and asks the government to check the law to protect them from abuse.

But it’s not the first time that the experiment is made to form a valid form. Despite many years of comfort and groups and government services, there was no such law that passed by.

Money separating the information said in 2008 and 2016, the objective was to register homework and improve their behavior, did not go on. The policy of the world is written in 2019 that is related to homework underneath the available workforce was not removed.

As a result, a large Indian military team must depend on the number of employer as a salary or leave or even contradicting or even contradictory. According to legitimate statistics, India has some 26 million staff, plus three million women. But in the world’s army (it) is comparing specific numbers to between 20 and 80 million.

“We have a friendly relationship with help and not working relationships,” proofas Netthscanale, “says Women’s education.

“This is keeping the form and is one of the greatest things to rule and register housework.”

When things stop, people’s homes are not read as established or at work, so that the homework falls out of dangerous protective security, free, freelance to the protection of the people.

At least 14 India, including Andhra Comedes, Bihar, Karataka, Karalaya, Rulers working in the past, include homework.

But there is less awareness among chores to use these items, adding that the quality of the work is also.

The labels are scattered and there is no machine not to sign or recognize that they do not sign up every agreement with employer.

“We will need to establish actions to apply for households – putting ‘the same’ and a large portion to work,” says.

The same applied to employers. “It’s invisible in order in order and therefore are survived the case and responsibility,” Ms. Gerorge is saying.

The Caste process also brings up some of the problems – staff from some errors can agree to white homes while others are slightly unable.

Finally the whole idea of ​​a building work should be lifted, George says. “Homework is considered to be unaccompanied but is not the case. You can’t take care of someone sick or cooking food without being skillful,” added.

In addition to failure to give up their rules or setting up his policy, India still exists a meeting of It 189 – a special bonder that will make sure that married workers have a similar relationship. Although in the conference in 2011, India does not match exactly with all her belongings.

India has “moral responsibility” to match the Memorial meeting, Ms George says. They also keep the command to help to control the employees and prevents the abuse of employees who travel abroad to work.

Last year, a thousand Chiefsihihihihihihihihihihihihihihihihihihihihihihihihiiuiuiirtiwiuiuiwiiwiiwiiwiiwiyirtiuiu ie after the Swiss Court discovered them to be responsible for the work of married couples. The couple was reported operating Switzerland Indians are forcing them to work in their position for hours without payments. The family rules claimed to be the governor.

Maybe the easiest description of many years of stifting to many people are more important in making such suggestions causes Indian judgment, Ms George shows.

“At the end of the day, people who have the power to represent bills or the law and the domains of domestic activities and employer.” Therefore, we may need to change in our minds. “
