The analysis has been undertaken based on a sample collected from 200 female domestic workers employed in Shillong city, Meghalaya. In the study, 18 vulnerability elements have been incorporated to assess the vulnerability of female domestic workers. Descriptive statistics as well as Chi-square test has been employed to undertake the analysis. The findings of the study reveal that 89 per cent of female domestic workers are vulnerable with differing levels of vulnerability, ranging from vulnerable to extremely vulnerable. On the other hand, those who are mildly and weakly vulnerable comprise only 9 per cent and 2 per cent of the surveyed workers, respectively. By demographic and occupational factors, being older in age, low education levels, being part-time workers and low levels of income are the areas where the results of the analysis have shown that they are most vulnerable. - Reproduced https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s41027-025-00560-6
