The helper said she spoke to her employer about the situation, but they told her to be patient. The maid now wants to know if she should ask for a transfer or if she has to return to Indonesia
SINGAPORE: A foreign domestic helper took to social media asking others for advice with regard to her poor work conditions.
“I’ve tried my best these 3 months,but more and more I can’t stand it and more and more days and every day is not getting better, and the longer I am also stressed.even though I used to work for almost 7 years taking care elderly but somehow this time I gave up and don’t want to stay, because I’m afraid if I stay here”, the helper wrote, adding that she found the job very difficult. She wrote that she was afraid of falling sick.
In the comments section, the helper said that she spoke to her employer about the situation, but they told her to be patient. She even asked them to buy vitamins for her, but they declined.Earlier this year, another foreign domestic worker took to social media asking other helpers for advice on whether she should let the Manpower Ministry know about the lack of sleep she has had because her employer asks for daily massages until midnight.
