Additionally, it was also reported by nearly 100% of those workers of Venezuelan origin that they had been victims of xenophobia; (4) Conclusions: It was concluded that in Barranquilla there is a precarious hiring of domestic workers, far from the normative precepts; Their work spaces are filled with racist and discriminatory behavior, and as such is seen as the starting point where the State must urgently implement actions to eradicate such negative behavior.pdfspaAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 InternacionalWorking conditionsWork agreementsWork rightsWork discriminationDomestic service workersThe invisible and exploited: the hidden labor reality of domestic service workers in Barranquilla, Colombiainfo:eu-repo/semantics/restrictedAccessinfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesis
