Abstract : Armed conflict in Africa and beyond has become one of the key precipitators to unemployment, deterioration of
working conditions, poverty and impeded socio-economic development. The purpose of this study was to establish the
factors that bind domestic workers and employers in armed conflict society. This study used a purely qualitative
methodology. An interview solicited data from eight purposively sampled domestic workers in Changara village in Tete
province, Mozambique. The findings of the study indicated that job satisfaction and poverty are the key antecedents that bind
domestic workers and their employers. The provision of social services such as health facilities and education to domestic
workers and their children, assistance of domestic workers’ displaced relatives and provision of physical security are some of
the factors that bind domestic workers and their employers. The study recommended that employers should provide adequate
socio-economic support and avoid exploiting them by giving them low wages and also sexually and emotionally harassing
them.
