Abstract

El sector de trabajadoras domésticas remuneradas ha enfrentado una discriminación histórica desproporcionada que pareciera estar relacionada con su particular composición sociodemográfica: mujeres jóvenes, de bajos recursos, bajo nivel educativo, provenientes de grupos étnicos marginados, trabajando en un 92.4% de los casos en condiciones de informalidad (INEI 2013). Además, a diferencia de otros trabajos, éste se realiza dentro de una residencia privada, donde resulta difícil que el Estado pueda regular y hacer cumplir los derechos y obligaciones establecidos por ley.
