All About Full-Time Maids

My current Maid agency give this comment on the PHI medical check up done by my Direct Transfer caregiver :


medical result :
FIT with remarks, need to take lifetime medication for her BP and regularly check the BP.

So , my question is will you still transfer the caregiver to Singapore ? Will it affected the hospitalization insurance cover in sg ?

Best not to take this caregiver as this medication is lifetime medication & costly. My BIL is on medication for life for BP & he’s also often easily agitated. JMO.

Where to lodge complaints towards a Indonesia maid? She have been offer sex service

OMG~ How did you catch?

I've heard of this before. aunt's friend stays in a penthouse. nights, the maid would climb out of the windows and offer sex to a neighbour. she was sent home but for some other reasons. the neighbour was busy asking around for her. that was how aunt's friend found out what her maid has been doing. what if she had fallen off? she would have died. climbing out of the windows and then back into the unit again. it's just something nobody would have expected. nights, the family of 3 would go to sleep upstairs.

I called BNI lucky plaza to ask how i can open a BNI acc for my indo maid, they told me that BNI account opening for maids can only be done at the Indonesian Embassy, is it true?

Can anyone with prior experience give me some advice?

thanks!

Can a full time maid help the employer to bake at home for sideline business? I went to my friend’s house and saw the maid baking instead of herself doing it and the maid has quite a bad personal hygiene :nailbite:

actually not supposed to get the maid to help with biz. But since this is done at home, the employer can argue that this is part of housework. but on the part that the maid has bad personal hygiene... yikes..

I won't order from home bakery unless I personally know the person.

If the eyer is reported, depends on testimony of maid. If she can provide very detailed information, providing evidence such as knowledge of regular customer, but still very weak case to being a devious eyer down.


I know of a famous bakery that started her bz fr marionette home with maid's help & maid was such good baker, eyer's bz grew into big bz employing staff for events. Husband quit mktg job to help. But not in unhygienic condition as you've witnessed. Yikes!!! :yikes:

Anybody cooking, baking or handling food for others to consume MUST hv 厨德 and human conscience. Earn money must retain conscience. If cannot, then better find sth can answer to conscience to do. Some blinded by profit & cut corners w/o conscience. Stain their hands & heart with other ppl's 'blood'. Sigh!

I am utterly disappointed by the staff at the Labour Express Hougang Green Branch. She goes by the name Elli.


Firstly, we texted her regarding looking at a maid for my elderly grandmother, who is an 80-year-old woman. We texted her last night, 19 Sept, to confirm, regarding looking at a maid, whom we are told from our previous appointment, that would be at the agency today, 20 Sept, at 12 noon. For starters, she ignored our text messages and calls. Which is very irresponsible and unprofessional.

Subsequently, she replied today, 20 Sept, at roughly 11.30 am in the morning to confirm that we will be going down to see the maid. To add in, at this point, she also confirmed that the maid will be in at 12 noon. Upon receiving this message, we proceeded to confirm and made our way down to the branch.

At 12.15 pm, she called and ask if we are coming down and we said that we are nearby and reaching. The phone call was short and ended at that. However, less than 5 minutes after our phone call, she told us the maid that SHE (ELLI) recommended to us, was taken even though she literally just hung up with us less than 5 minutes ago.

This is very unprofessional and irresponsible because we are talking about making an 80-year-old woman travel down to look at potential maids only for their staff to tell us that the maid is taken, less than 5 minutes after a phone call with us.
