Hiring a maid in Singapore involves several legal obligations that both employers and maids must adhere to. Understanding these requirements is crucial to ensure a smooth and compliant hiring process. Here’s what you need to know:
Employers are responsible for obtaining the necessary work permit for their maid. These permits are typically valid for two years and must be renewed in compliance with government regulations.
Employers are required to purchase medical and personal accident insurance for their domestic helpers. This coverage ensures that maids receive proper medical care in case of illness or injury.
Employers must ensure that maids receive their monthly salaries on time and are entitled to rest days and public holidays. Compliance with these requirements is essential for a harmonious working relationship.
Employers should provide a clear employment contract that outlines the terms and conditions of employment. This contract must be submitted to the Ministry of Manpower (MOM).
