BTS: Hello Cecilia. Could you tell us a little about what working conditions are like for the homeworkers you represent in Indonesia?

CW: Certainly. Since the Indonesian economic crisis of 1997, the number of homeworkers has increased massively because formal employment has shrunk sharply. This has affected both men and women. But the majority of homeworkers today are still women.
