| 1. Language Proficiency Currently, Singapore families are allowed to employ helpers from the Bangladesh, India, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Macau, Malaysia, Pakistan, Philippines, South Korea, Sri Lanka, Taiwan and Thailand. Most of the Indonesian and Burmese are able to communicate in some basic English as they are trained in the country. Filipino will be able to converse better in English. If you do not understand English or you would like your helper to look after an elderly person in your family who does not speak English, you are advised to not employ Filipinos. You may consider taking an Indonesian helper. |
| 2. Age Consideration Employers are free to choose helpers between age 23 and 50. The age of your helper can contribute to your family's dynamics. If you have small kids, you may need someone who age is about early 30’s and has the experience and energy to take care of children. For the teenagers in your family, you may need a younger helper in her 20's who can communicate with them. Elderly may prefer someone who is on the mature age like mid 30’s. |
| 3. Secondary School Education All the Domestic Workers have to complete at least 8 years of formal education. |
| 4. Study The Helper's Background Carefully You must scrutinize the helper's background information and her expectation for her future employer's family, so that both you and the helper are on the same page. Pay attention to whether her family situation really requires her to work in Singapore. This will become the factor that governs her work attitude and sense of responsibility. |
| 5. Greenhorn Vs. Experienced Helper Employers often wonder whether it's best to employ a helper who is new to Singapore or already has experience in working in Singapore. According to some experts, those new to Singapore are generally more loyal and less demanding, but their lack of experience will require more training and grooming. The more experienced helpers generally pick up work faster and show greater initiative. However, some of them might have been influenced by other helpers and have accumulated bad habits. |
| 6. Understanding Cultural Differences Every country has its own cultural, religious, and social practices. You must understand their distinctive lifestyles and choose a helper who can match your own lifestyle. Some Indonesian helpers, due to religious reason, do not eat pork, and some of them cannot even touch pork. Some of them have to pray at certain times of the day. Employers are advised to be mindful of the helper's customs. |
