Peru:
Domestic Workers organize for In Peru there are 700,000 domestic workers; 90% are indigenous and rural young women who have migrated from the countryside to the cities to escape from poverty. Considering their working day, payment and access to healthcare and pensions, many work in slave conditions – no fixed timetable, no rest days and even no payment or no minimum pay. Many are underage and/or illiterate and are denied the right to go to school. They suffer physical abuse and rape. When they reach sixty they are thrown out with no pension or severance pay, after investing their life in the care of the family.
