Domestic workers in Hong Kong pose for a photo in a shelter run by Bethune House. The ministry supports women who have suffered abuse or have other problems with their employment.
There are about 370,000 foreign domestic workers in Hong Kong–about 5 percent of the population–almost all from Indonesia and the Philippines. More than 98 percent of the workers are women, most of whom leave their families behind so that they can earn money to help their families survive.
