These jobs include childcare, nannies, caregivers for the elderly or disabled, housekeepers, cooks, gardeners, and other household positions. These positions require a great deal of effort, time, and energy. Many of these positions require the worker to live onsite, or within the home of the employer.<\/p>\n
Domestic positions are incredibly important, and domestic workers should be compensated and treated fairly. At For All Workers, we help domestic workers understand their rights and the protections provided to them under California law.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][\/vc_section][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” css=”.vc_custom_1556105446677{padding-top: 50px !important;padding-bottom: 50px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner el_class=”with-border-left” width=”1\/2″][vc_custom_heading text=”Your Rights as a Domestic Worker” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:30px|text_align:left” with_border=”true”][vc_column_text]In California, domestic workers are entitled to certain wage standards under the Domestic Worker Bill of Rights (California Labor Code sections 1450\u20131453 and 1454).

This is the best way to document your hours worked and what you are paid. If your rights are being violated, you can use records and timesheets to prove your case.<\/p>\n
If your employer has failed to provide you with the wage, overtime, or meal benefits that you are entitled to, contact For All Workers. You may be entitled to compensation not previously paid, and your employer may be required to pay you for violating your rights.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_section full_width=”stretch_row” content_placement=”middle” css=”.vc_custom_1556103296234{padding-top: 50px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;background-color: #30bced !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
