I live in a non-gated community. We have 10 homes that are in close proximity. We all chipped in and hired a gardener that we have now fired. We are a neighborhood of privately owned homes. We do not have condominiums, or tourist rentals. We used the gardener to clean up the sides of the road, and in front of our houses. Is this gardener due severance pay?

My queestion still is what is the law in this case.....from what I have read a domestic is considered not to be a domestic when working for a company or for a condominium or for someone who is making a profit from their work, such as a villa that is used for tourism rentals.......this is not the case....we just wanted our neighborhood to look nice and equally shared his salary voluntarily......

Still not figured it out do you? There are threads on this matter and nothing really conclusive came out of those so for me that means that the law is not that really clear on this matter. And anyway, if you all shared voluntarily for his salary, what is then the problem in sharing voluntarily in giving the man a justified severance pay. Like said already here, if you don't, you have big change it will come back and bite you but that's not the reason you should do it, do it because its the fair thing to do.
Actually, I've seen a couple of cases in which maids have gone to the Ministry of Labor with complaints. Save yourselves the headache. And be a decent human being.
