[quote=Anonymous]OT for live-ins
Extending discrimination protections to employers of single employees (firing a nanny when she tells you she's pregnant??)
Better enforcement of the laws that exist but are commonly ignored ie. retaliation and defamation laws, OT pay, being taxed as an employee, payment for all hours worked, minimum wage, proper payroll deductions, how to properly determine the worth of a live-in space. No the tiny bedroom across the hall from your child, sharing a bathroom with your kid, and the pleasure of living with you does not mean you don't have to pay me.

The nature of the nanny industry often creates a dynamic of a less educated, perhaps foreign, nanny without the knowledge of her rights or the resources to see them enforced, taken advantage of by more educated more aware of laws and how to skirt them and more resources that make them essentially untouchable. I would really like to see an organization not only fighting for and expanding these rights, but educating and equipping nannies about them and how to see them enforced. [/quote]
