Description
The Indonesian government has been urged to revisit the law on placement and protection of migrant workers by implementing comprehensive protection which would guarantee their rights as mandated by the UN's 1990 International Convention on the Protection of the Rights of All Migrant Workers and Convention on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW), as well as the International Labor Organization Convention No.189. According to Wahidah Rustam, chair of the Women Solidarity's (SP), the government must immediately ratify the ILO's Convention No.189 on decent work for domestic workers and pass a draft bill on domestic worker protection, which acknowledges a domestic worker as an employee who has the right to enjoy safe and adequate working conditions.
