International Domestic Workers Federation

The International Domestic Workers Federation (IDWF) is a global organization that supports and represents domestic workers, such as cleaners, caregivers, and nannies. Established in 2013, it advocates for their rights, seeking decent working conditions, fair wages, and recognition of their labor as essential. The federation connects domestic workers’ unions and organizations worldwide, promoting policies that protect their rights and dignity. By raising awareness about the challenges domestic workers face, the IDWF helps empower individuals in this often marginalized profession, ensuring they have a voice in labor discussions and better access to social protections.
