Adult Domestic Workers in Uganda: An Analysis of Human Rights and
Social Injustice looks at adult domestic work within the framework
of human rights and social injustice. It highlights the
marginalisation of domestic workers in human rights covenants and
other legal instruments, and examines the various ways in which the
human rights of most of these workers are infringed. The situation
of domestic workers is not widely discussed. Even less do people
consider that the circumstances under which most domestic workers
perform their tasks, which are crucial to the stability of many
urban households, epitomise a blatant breach of human rights in
addition to constituting cases of gross social injustice. The
�ndings of this study can be generalised to domestic work
throughout Uganda, and obviously many other African countries,
since the case studies are a microcosm of what takes place in many
households across the continent. The book strongly recommends
regularising as well as improving the terms and conditions of
service of domestic workers, with a view to ensuring respect for
their human rights and attainment of social justice.
