The Kenyan Informal sector is key to employment creation. By looking at every year's Economic Survey report, the sector represents various categories of economic activities ranging from manufacturing to domestic servants. One striking feature of this category of workers is their low pay. Despite the low pay, there is no research available regarding their remitting behaviour.This book tries to fill that gap by using empirical data from one of the Country's major cities. The data shows that these domestic servants have families behind and are very concerned about their future, thus needing a reasonable pay.
