Résumé

** p. 21:
Migrant domestic workers are vulnerable to subjugation to servitude, since
they often have a precarious migration status and face prejudices. The Special
Rapporteur recommends that States:

-Abolish immigration regimes that tie a visa to the sponsorship of a single
employer, including for domestic workers employed by diplomats;
- Recognize migrant domestic workers’ right to freely choose where they reside
and abolish any live-in requirements stipulated by law or regulations;
