; and (B) the number of new jobs for child care and house cleaning positions will increase 6 to 7 percent. (6) Nine out of ten domestic workers are women, and such women are disproportionately people of color and immigrants. Women, people of color, and immigrants have historically faced barriers to employment and economic advancement. (7) Domestic workers face low wages and unacceptable working conditions.
