  • Unpacking cross-country variations in domestic worker protection regimes: adopting a policy regime perspective Anju Mary Paul (Author) Domestic workers are some of the most vulnerable and least protected workers in the world. However, there is significant variation in domestic worker protections across countries. Using a policy regime perspective, I unpack how differing ideas, institutional arrangements, and interest groups inform differences in the degree of legal protections a country provides domestic workers. I posit that only if all three building blocks are present and supportive will a country institute a strong domestic worker protection regime. I apply this model to explain the incomplete/weak domestic worker protection regimes in Sweden, Singapore, South Africa and Pakistan. 10.1111/ilr.12432 DOI https://doi.org/10.1111/ilr.12432 publication.journalArticle
