[quote=Anonymous]"The report made several recommendations, including ending the exclusion of domestic workers from state minimum wage laws, providing them with workers’ compensation and unemployment insurance coverage and guaranteeing them overtime pay and meal and rest breaks. " My take then is that this just not representative of the nanny market in the DC area. In MD at least and I think DC too, you have to pay min wage, provide workers' comp, pay into unemployment insurance and provide OT> There are of course always people everywhere that break the law but here we have all the reasonable suggestions already. As for meal and rest breaks, of course that is not feasible for a nanny position unless it's just "resting" time on the clock during naps - almost every MB on this board has said she expects her nanny to take a bit of time for lunch and rest during naptime. So i think DC area stacks up well. [/quote]
