The article examines the legal treatment of migrant domestic workers in Europe and notes the recent growth of scholarly interest in the subject. It critiques the dominant focus on severe exploitation such as slavery, forced labour and trafficking, and proposes comparative examination of national labour and migration-law regimes and of the role of EU law in constructing and challenging those regimes.
How the exploitation and vulnerability of migrant domestic workers in Europe should be regulated through the interaction of national labour and migration-law regimes and EU law, rather than solely through modern-slavery and trafficking frameworks.
