Summary

Brazil is progressing towards providing full social protection rights to domestic workers. The country has taken two major steps towards strengthening social protection of domestic workers; recognition of domestic work as an occupation in the Constitution of 1988 and equalization of social protection rights between domestic workers and other worker categories in the constitutional amendment of 2013.
