As part of the requirement stipulated by MOM, it is compulsory for new employers to participate in the EOP. Employers can however opt for classroom EOP or online EOP

Our recruitment specialists will perform extensive interviews with FDWs to pair their suitability with your specifications. All FDWs undergo intensive training at overseas training centre and are introduced to Singapore culture and lifestyles before they are sent to the employers’ homes.

Most maids are timid and sensitive. They are fearful of being scolded, and might cry easily. Apart from adjusting to our city life in Singapore, they are now required to converse in a language (English) which they may not be so accustomed to back home. The relationship between employer and FDW can be improved if we help them recognize their weakness and encourage them to ask questions whenever they are in doubt. Please give your FDW the opportunity to re-try failed tasks as she is still trying to learn.

The standard of living in their home country is much lower in comparison with Singapore. Due to poverty, most of them are from rural villages and can only afford basic necessities. You need to give your maid comprehensive training in operating different household appliances as most of them have little knowledge of modern electrical appliances e.g. vacuum cleaner, electrical or gas cooker, refrigerator, electrical iron, oven, pressure cooker, etc. Thus, it is important to give them step-by-step operating instructions and basic safety measures to avoid unwanted accidents. It is also necessary to teach them the use of detergents. Coming mainly from agricultural backgrounds, these FDWs may lack standard hygiene consciousness and need to be taught cleanliness. They may consider the floor clean enough; however, we might think otherwise. Also, we would wash vegetables with clean water twice before cooking but they may not have the same habit. Though they were specially trained at our training centre in their country of origin, they still require time to learn and adjust themselves upon their arrival here.

Do not be too sensitive, when employers raise their voice, it does not necessarily mean they are angry. Sometimes, they just want to remind you.

Jangan berasa sensitf jika majikan menaikkan suara mereka. Ini tidak semestinya bermaksud mereka marah. Kadang-kadang, mereka hanya ingin mengingati kamu.
