Over the next few weeks of this special series on migrant labour, we will be exploring the topic from the perspective of policy and economics; taking you through the forgotten history of a landmark court case, and delving into the specific challenges faced by domestic workers. This week we explore the specific vulnerabilities of domestic workers by delving into the case of Charkini, an Indonesian domestic worker who suffered mental and physical abuse at the hands of her employers.
