Shameful that it’s 15 years since migrant domestic workers in the UK have entered on a visa which restricts access to rights. International Domestic Workers Day was a beautiful celebration of hope & solidarity despite this. @voiceofdws.bsky.social @kalayaan.org.uk @focusonlabour.bsky.social

Great to see this win for domestic workers in Indonesia after 22 years of calling for rights. Migrant domestic worker in the UK have been campaigning for a visa which allows access to basic rights for 14 years. Let’s make sure it’s no longer @voiceofdws.bsky.social www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Indonesia: Domestic workers legally recognised after '22-year struggle'
The country is home to some 4.2 million domestic workers - of which almost 90% are women.

Migrant domestic workers know what works to address exploitation & enable access to workers rights. It’s time to listen to them & reinstate the rights on the ODW visa @voiceofdws.bsky.social @kalayaan.org.uk @focusonlabour.bsky.social

It’s always brilliant to work with @voiceofdws.bsky.social & these recommendations for the Fair Work Agency are positive & practical & will help make sure the agency is relevant to & trusted by migrant domestic workers

In last Sunday's workshop with @KingsCollegeLon @Kalayaan @AfterExpProject, VODW's Future Voices Revolution group wrote letters to MPs @stephenctimms @stellacreasy @SeemaMalhotra1 calling for reform of the Overseas Domestic Worker Visa. We look forward to their replies!

Hoping this is the last international domestic workers day that domestic workers have to repeat the call for a visa which means they can access rights as workers @voiceofdws.bsky.social

Today is #InternationalDomesticWorkersDay. We're headed to Westminster to celebrate with one another, share food, hear speeches and come together again to unite and call on the UK Government to fix the broken domestic workers visa and ratify ILO Convention 189 on decent work for domestic workers 💪

The only message for International Domestic Workers Day. UK restore the original domestic worker visa, ratify ILO C189. Domestic workers are workers and need access to rights! @kalayaan.org.uk #theVoiceofDomesticWorkers
