► 329 housemaids killed in 10 years ► Culture of impunity, lax monitoring blamed   Many domestic workers are still falling victims to different types of violence, including killing, rape and physical torture, across the country though the government formulated a policy to protect their rights. As the incidents of housemaid abuse are taking place frequently, rights activists have blamed culture of impunity, settlement of the cases in exchange of money, influence by the powerful employers of the workers in trial process and lack of vigilance by law enforcement agencies for such violence. The Domestic Workers Protection and Welfare Policy, 2015, formulated by the government, has some specific provisions to ensure physical and mental welfare of domestic helps, good behaviour from employers, regular payment of their wages and alimony as well as granting sufficient vacations.
