A portable tool that pools voluntary contributions from clients employing house cleaners enabling workers to redeem various benefits has been trialed by Fair Care Labs, the innovation division of US advocacy group the National Domestic Workers Alliance. The “Alia” tool has been developed using a grant from Google. The system also enables workers to redeem paid time off at $less than $13 per day. Fair Care Labs has also joined with insurance firm Colonial Life to provide accident and critical illness, disability and life insurance to such workers.
