This policy brief aims to provide a descriptive picture of the condition of domestic workers in Bihar State. Bihar included domestic workers in the minimum wage notification in 2009, but while many domestic workers noted that they earn more than the stipulated minimum wage per month, most said that the minimum wage was insufficient for their households to survive. 

This brief is part of the WIEGO Publication Series.
