Synopsis: |
Homeworkers are a particularly vulnerable category of workers due to their ambiguous legal status, their isolation and their low bargaining power. Action-oriented programmes aiming to break their isolation, also make them aware of their rights, and help them to organize and to improve their bargaining position. These programmes generally improve homeworkers' socio-economic situation and have made substantial improvements to their working and living conditions in many countries. This book's case studies - from Australia, Canada, India, Japan, the Netherlands, the Philippines, the United Kingdom and the United States - provide the context and assess the progress achieved, as well as describing the plans for the future. |
