Punjab Steps Up for Domestic Workers The Punjab Government has stepped up to regulate one of the most invisible workforces domestic workers. With the Punjab Domestic Workers Act 2019 and the Punjab Home-Based Workers Act 2023 the province has drawn a legal line between service and exploitation. Key protections now in force: • No employment of children under 15 years and no hazardous work for anyone under 18. • Mandatory written employment contracts specifying wages and working hours. • Access to minimum wages, weekly rest, paid leave and maternity benefits. • Recognition and registration of home-based workers giving them access to welfare and legal protection. This isn’t just labor reform it’s a shift in social consciousness. For the first time the law acknowledges that dignity and fair treatment belong inside every household. #Punjab #Domesticworkers #Humanrights #Labourlaw #Socialjustice #Pakistan #Policychange
