| dc.description.abstract | Undoubtedly the informal sector plays a significant role in economy. In Pakistan, informal sector workers are not only being underpaid, but they also work without workplace safety standards, health insurance, and access to social security benefits. Domestic workers, whether inside or outside Pakistan, due to poor bargaining power as compared to an employer, do not have the negotiating ability for determining terms and conditions of employment. Formalization of this large economy would also require the government to address the serious difficulties of domestic work. This paper reflects idea of formalizing existing informal sector of domestic work so that there can be a positive change in the domestic workers’ income and lifestyle. For this, this paper is concerned with their health and family issues and flexibility of the employer towards employee and how it affects the formalization tendency. Using conflict theory as the interpretive tool, the concept of inequality, division of resources, unequal power relations, and the existing conflicts among different social and economic classes are analyzed | |
