DESCRIPTION:Le Centre pour les droits de la personne et le pluralisme jurid
 ique\, en collaboration avec le Laboratoire de recherche sur le Droit du t
 ravail et le Développement\, présente Dzodzi Tsikata\, Chercheure O’Brien 
 en résidence.  Résumé  (En anglais seulement) Without exception\, the lite
 rature on domestic work in Ghana has found that domestic workers are paid 
 very poor wages\, if at all\, work long hours without properly defined wor
 king hours and perform tasks which depend on the changing needs of their e
 mployers. To address these deficits\, studies have recommended specific re
 gulations to clarify\, standardise and improve the terms and conditions of
  domestic work. Although boosted by the passage of the ILO Convention on D
 ecent Work for Domestic Workers (Convention No. 189 of 2011)\, regulating 
 domestic work would be difficult in Ghana. This is because of the nature o
 f domestic work\, the location of its workplace at home\, the profile of d
 omestic workers\, the limitations of the existing institutional regime for
  domestic work and more generally\, the extensive informalisation of work 
 in Ghana.  Conférencière  (En anglais seulement) Dzodzi Tsikata\, O’Brien 
 Fellow in Residence\, is on sabbatical from the University of Ghana where 
 she is Associate Professor at the Institute of Statistical\, Social and Ec
 onomic Research (ISSER). Dzodzi Tsikata\, who studied Law at the Universit
 y of Ghana\, has a Ph.D in Social Science from Leiden University. Her rese
 arch focuses on gender and development issues\; the work conditions of inf
 ormal workers and the livelihood implications of agriculture and land comm
 ercialisation.  Un léger déjeuner sera servi. Prière de confirmer votre pr
 ésence à chlrp.law [at] mcgill.ca.
