Salary
|
Central Provident Fund (CPF) contributions are not required for the Foreign Domestic Workers (FDWs). A FDW's wages should reflect the scope of work agreed upon. She must be paid her due salary each month, no later than seven days after the last day of the salary period. Any salary period agreed between the employer and worker shall not exceed one month. If the worker so requests, the salary shall be paid via direct transfer into the worker's bank account in a bank established in Singapore. If it is mutually agreed that the employer should keep the bank account book, the FDW must be given access to the book at all times to check that payments are credited promptly and regularly. The employer must also keep a record of the monthly salary paid to the FDW, and should be able to produce this record at the request of any public officer. Where appropriate, the employer should consider giving the Foreign Domestic Worker (FDW) a periodic wage adjustment. This is to reward her for good performance and loyalty in service. Apart from monthly wages, the employer can also consider offering the FDW a contract gratuity. This sum of money, which should be negotiated between the two parties, could be paid to the FDW upon conclusion of an agreed period of employment. Such incentives may result in a more motivated and diligent FDW. |
