The article is devoted to the peculiarities of the paid domestic labor market in the Russian economy. It is shown that this market is characterized by the following features: weak state regulation; a high proportion of internal and external migrants; a wide spread of the shadow economy and informal labor relations; gender differences; the presence in the market of an “elite” segment of workers providing higher-quality and highly paid services, and a segment of workers performing temporary, episodic work. It is proved on the basis of market analysis that there is a predominant demand for skilled labor, and wages are at or above the national average. It is concluded that further efforts are needed to legalize the work of domestic workers within the framework of the state employment policy.
