A Call for Global Protections for Child Domestic Workers
In June 2010, members of the International Labour Organization (ILO) will begin formal discussions regarding a possible new global instrument to ensure decent work for domestic workers.
Anti-Slavery International, Human Rights Watch and Save the Children have initiated the following statement in order to call upon members of the ILO to give special consideration to the vulnerability of child domestic workers around the world, and to adopt a binding Convention that ensures special protections for children. They invite national, regional, and international NGOs from around the world to join in signing the statement.
The deadline for signing the call is 5 May.
