All About Full-Time Maids

Hi,


just receive email from MOM saying that they cannot ban or blacklist my ex-maid just based on feedback alone. However, they did mention I can become a referee for her so whenever any prospective employer or agent want to apply for her, MOM will give them my contact no. and they can choose to call me.

think that is the only thing i can do now because i can't go to the police already since she is already back home. but i'm glad at least i tried to warn others and did something to prevent them from falling into the same trap as I did! :xedfingers:

I had a helper last yr and discovered missing jewellery frm a locked shelf. The maid used to close the door and clean, my mum discovered a few days after she left. Initially we tot the same s u.. maid gone back. My mum couldnt sleep well for a week and we went down to cantonment to make a report. There was no web cam at that time so we had no evidence. Nevethless, the officer took down our statement and my mum told him that she would like to confront the maid if she returns. MOM was informed.
If she ever return we will b informed.

You hv fb pictures so u are better off than me, go ahead with the report.

She is so clever, she knew abt the pics in her FB (maybe she joined this forum...) so she took down the pics and closed the account. Anyway, I just found out that she has registered herself with a local agent called RAFFLES EMPLOYMENT and on her biodata, she dare to tell the agent that she has an excellent job record! :mad:

I called the agent up, her name is Pam and told her all abt her lies and bad deeds. Agent was quite surprised ( again, I dunno if agent was acting or what...cos she seems to specialized in transfer maids...) and told me that my ex-maid didn't tell her anything. Aft talking to her, she told me that she will most probably take down her profile..(again I dunno how true...)

Anyway, will see if MOm does contact me if any prospective employers when to employ her...great time to test out what MOM promised! :evil:

Lucky you told the agent, you go and check lay whether the maid advertisement still there or not…if still there means agent trying hard to market her…if she take down means she good agent ehehhe

I'm curious...how did you find out about your ex-maid's registration with a another agency?

I think this maid is disturbing u as much as my mum was when we found out about the missing jewellery. My mum was like brooding over the stolen stuff and she lost a lot of sleep so we took the trouble to go to the cops.
Well, the agent should appreciate the fact that u made the effort to call her. I stongly suggest u make a police report, really! that made us all feel better and the officer wanted to know what we wanted since shes back in her hometown so my mum told him she would like to b informed should the maid return, the officer stated that they will be notified if she comes back. Alternatively, u can follow up with MOM that yr maid has registered with someone and u hv already highlighted her theft to the agent so should any employer decide to take her, remind them that u are referee and would like to communicate with the prospective employer.
You can also check regularly frm MOMs website whether maid has been employed.

You mean now maids can register themselves with another agent while on WP and the agent can accept their registration and market them?

It was unintentional...haha....I was googling for her FB page and couldn't find it and instead, google listed all her ads!

I believe so cos on gumtree classifieds online itself, there were many maids advertising themselves, seeking a new employer even before their contract ended! Some even had the cheek to request for only expat employers... :razz:

They will list out what they can do and what they are expecting...can go take a look..I also didn't know abt this until yesterday!.... :yikes:

No wonder these maids are like changing employers like nobody's business!

The ad has been removed…I don’t see it there anymore

You see the thing is that, once the employer has informed the MOM ,even though 100 agencies find employer for your maid, the prospective employer surely will get a letter about feedback, from MOM …then when the new employer calls and speaks to Trimum ,and after hearing all the negative things about the maid…do you think the future employer in his right mind,will want to hire the maid,I would say that the maid’s chances of coming to Singapore already spoiled…
