Swiss court: diplomatic immunity not shield for domestic worker abuse
AI에 의해 보고됨
The Swiss Federal Supreme Court ruled on September 25 that diplomatic immunity does not apply to employer-employee relationships between a domestic worker and a diplomat. The landmark decision came after a Filipino domestic worker sued her employer at the Pakistani Mission in Geneva, alleging years of unpaid labor. This ruling allows domestic workers to bring claims against diplomats regardless of their status.
