WIEGO and IDWF. Domestic Workers and Social Protection in Tamil Nadu. WIEGO Policy Brief No. 23.
This policy brief aims to provide a descriptive picture of the condition of domestic workers in Tamil Nadu, one of the first Indian states in which the National Domestic Workers Movement (NDWM) began organizing domestic workers in the mid-1980s. Compared to several other Indian states, Tamil Nadu has relatively progressive legislation and programmes for domestic workers, including its own Domestic Workers Welfare Board.
