We experimentally study an intervention to reduce mistreatment of Filipino overseas domestic workers (DWs) by their employers. Encouraging DWs to show their employers a family photo while providing a small gift when starting employment reduced DW mistreatment, increased their job satisfaction, and increased the likelihood of contract extension. While generally unaware of the intervention, treated DWs’ families who remained in the Philippines came to view international labor migration more positively. An online experiment with potential employers suggests that the effect operates through a reduction in employers’ perceived social distance from their employees.
