Domestic work is an important occupation for millions of individuals. Women make up the overwhelming majority of these workers.

Noting the omission of express references to either domestic work or domestic workers in a broad range of national and international frameworks of law, the Committee
on the Protection of the Rights of All Migrant Workers and Members of Their Families issued a general comment in order to provide States with guidance on how to implement
their obligations under the International Convention on the Protection of the Rights of All Migrant Workers and the Members of Their Families.

Paragraphs 14, 57 and 59 refer to the right to education.
