Maids: The Untold Story

Modern-day servants work in variety of situations. Sometimes they are paid appropriately and respected by their employers. But in some situations they are abused, confined, and even raped or killed. In this series produced for the BBC World Service, Judith Kampfner looks at the lives of maids around the world.
PART 1




In this documentary, Judith Kampfner examines the lives of maids who’ve travelled to a foreign nation to find work.
PART 2






This half hour, Kampfner focuses on the growing number of maids in Latin America -- most of whom seek work in their own countries.
