All About CCTV/spy camera for monitoring maids

The poor maid, totally no privacy. We are treating them like animals if we do this. No wonder there are more complaints about employers nowadays.

Its not that we are treating them like animals but there is a need to understand the bigger problem why the employer have to do it? Its since most of the maids are not honest like the last time, my previous maid stole lots of money from us and kept multiple HP's even though we were against it... But having said that its not at all good to have the camera inside the washroom atleast... inside maid's room is debatable.. as long as maid knows about it and maid and employer and fine with it then its ok...
Once the trust is built between the maid and the employer then the cameras can be removed also... its not a permanent thing and if the maid is honest then she shouldnt be scared of any camera as long as her privacy is taken care of...

Agreed~!

huh, what if HOME and TW2 complain and say it is against the maid's human rights to have her privacy intruded and demand it to be removed?

Just visit Funan Centre or Sim Lim Square. There're many shops selling different brands of cameras and video recorders there. Best to bring your man along so that you'll not be con by some nasties there.

If the NGOs, or even MOM for that matter, can assure you of your household safety why not? Which is more important to you - household safety vs maid privacy?

Maid privacy here implies not installing a camera in her room (if she sleeps in a separate room) or installing one in the toilets. Otherwise the above statements stand.

FYI, a camera can have more than 10 uses besides maid monitoring.

hi hi


I will be getting my first maid soon. My kids are 2 and 8 yrs old. There are no other adults at home to supervise the maid as both me and my other half are working.

I have never employed a maid before, hence i’m rather nervous! Ha. I’m seriously thinking of installing a home CCTV. Would like to have some advice:

- anyone has contacts of installation of home CCTV?
- Do i need to inform the maid that i have such surveillance at home?
- Do i need to inform the maid agency?

Thank you.

think u dont have to inform anyone that u have cctv in ur house.


anyway the new maid will find out about it soon.

and i think u can put in anywhere in ur house, other then the toilet…

maybe u can check out the shops in sim lim square and sim lim tower.

I agreed, not the toilet…
