Do you employ someone who works in your home? If so, you will most likely be affected by a new state law — the Massachusetts Domestic Workers’ Bill of Rights (DWBR). The law will give basic protections to privately hired nannies, housekeepers and care givers who work in our homes – protections that other workers have had for decades and that many of us take for granted.

If you are interested to learn about the DWBR, which was signed by Governor Patrick in July 2014, and goes into effect on April 1st, 2015., join this information session. Lydia Edwards of the Massachusetts Coalition for Domestic Workers and Marya Axner of the New England Jewish Labor Committee will be there to answer questions and to provide materials to help you and your employees make a smooth transition to the new law. This will be an employer friendly environment!

Please RSVP, if you plan to attend, to Beth Polasky at samissie@comcast.net or 617-244-5675.
