[SPEAKER IN FRENCH]
[APPLAUSE]
We are pleased to have taken part in this collective effort to provide more effective protection to the
estimated one hundred million domestic workers worldwide.
We would like to highlight the significant breakthrough in this convention and recommendation;
namely, the effort to ensure that domestic workers receive protections that are not less favorable
than those provided for workers generally. The contribution of domestic workers has long been undervalued
and unrecognized; yet, domestic workers are a major component of the modern service economy.
CHANT: Long live domestic workers, long live domestic workers, long live domestic workers.
