    mandatory day off (if ever passed by law) is an abuse of the maid AND the employerabuse of maid because not all want to got out and waste moneyabuse of employer because they are deprived of helps and alternative rest arrangement for the maidthe only winner are the NGO who are out to score pointscan’t believe an educated society can become so myopic

    sheryl: is true that when maids arrive from their country, first few months of their salary will be so call ‘deducted’ to pay the agency who brought them in. according to the maid agency, this salary deduction is a placement fee which maid has to pay for the agency that got them employer ( a job ) here. MOM will give 2yrs work permit or till the expiry date of maid’s passport. …KiasuGrandMaster II: some maid agencies do charge more from the maid but not all maid agencies do that. I know of a few maid agencies who deduct lesser from maid when we compare. If the maid agencies don’t do that, where their profit comes from? Employer here not willing to pay high agency fee thus maid agency has to earn from maids. all these are in the newspaper.

    Hi Kiasuumom,1) the agency is probably going to give the employer card to the new employer with my name on it as the employer. is that legal? (the agency will not give the work permit card with your name to the next employer. the agency will return the work permit card with your name to MOM and will apply a new work permit card with new employer name for your maid)2) what am i suppose to do with the employer card as i do not intend to employ any domestic help in the near future.(you have to return to MOM directly at 18 haverlock road or return to the agency who will return to MOM. if you keep the card for more than 1 month after your maid has been transferred out to new employer, MOM will write a letter to remind you to return this card to them.)

    So I guess the agencies has won because now paying $400 and up has become a norm, eventhough they were called up by MOM. I pity those family who really need a maid and has problem coping with the pay increase. The reality is maid’s salary goes up but employer salary never go up. Does this mean maid’s productivity also go up?
