Abuses against Female Migrant Domestic Workers in Indonesia and Malaysia
This 110-page report documents the abuse and exploitation that Indonesian female domestic workers experience at each step of the migration process. Most domestic workers are forbidden to leave their workplace and unknown numbers suffer psychological, physical, and sexual assault by labor agents and employers. Some migrant domestic workers are caught in situations of trafficking and forced labor: they are deceived about the conditions and type of work, confined in the workplace, and receive no salary at all.
