I'm a surveyor for the Boston area. Definitely feel free to email me with any questions or to set a time up to be interviewed!
Hey everyone,
contrary to some of the comments in response to national survey currently underway by the National Domestic Workers Alliance (NDWA), please be advised that in order to qualify to participate in the NDWA study, you need to be residing in one of the geographical locations listed above, be paid by either the owner of the home or a family member of whom you work for, have worked more than six hours in the last week, be 18 years of age or older and not be a member of a union/organization that protects your rights at the workplace.
This is participatory research project is designed to document the demographics, wages, working conditions, and training needs in the domestic work industry and not a study that gathers data that reflects bad jobs only.
The compensation offered is not unique to the NDWA study, but a standard award offered to participants of any research project.
I hope up this clears up any confusion regarding compensation and participation with the survey.
Best,
Helen Panagiotopoulos
