We are a membership-based global organization of domestic and household workers.  A domestic or household worker is any person engaged in domestic work within an employment relationship.  We believe domestic work is work and all domestic and household workers deserve to enjoy the same rights as all other workers. 

Our objective is to build a strong, democratic and united domestic/household workers global organization to protect and advance domestic workers’ rights everywhere.

As of July 2016, we have 59 affiliates from 48 countries, with 500,897 domestic workers organized.  Most of these are trade unions and others are associations and workers co-ops.
