Summary

A UCLA study published today, Profile of Domestic Workers in California, captures the experience of workers in the domestic work sector. Based on government data from the most recent 5-year sample (2014–2018) of the American Community Survey, the study provides a profile of domestic workers in California—who they are, where they live and work, and the economic vulnerabilities they face due to their employment status, low wages, and lack of benefits.
