Singapore Migrant Domestic Worker (MDW) / Domestic Helper

Foreign Domestic Workers (also known as foreign home care workers, foreign migrant workers, foreign domestic helpers, transnational domestic workers, foreign domestic employees, overseas domestic workers and domestic migrant workers) are, according to the International Labour Organization’s Convention No. 189 and the International Organization for Migration, any persons “moving to another country or region to better their material or social conditions and improve the prospect for themselves or their family,” engaged in a work relationship performing “in or for a household.”

The Work Permit (WP) for a Foreign Domestic Worker (FDW) allows to perform domestic works as a domestic helper in Singapore.

Maid: The term “maid” is a degrading term which is still commonly used in Singapore. There is a sense of servitude and immediately puts one lower on the social order which is completely wrong. They are also just working like other professionals. The term “maid” actually reinforces the treatment of domestic workers as lower beings because it subconsciously reiterates the wrongful notion that they are somehow lower in the social order or status.

Our domestic workers are working in Singapore at great personal costs with low wages and often backbreaking hours. We should therefore be mindful of not making their position any worst!

We need to exercise better judgment on our choice of words. Hence we have refrained from using such low grade term which has been replaced with “Domestic Helper”, “Domestic Worker” or “Domestic Assistant”.

Educational Requirements for First-time Foreign Domestic Workers

Employer requirements for hiring an FDW

As an employer, you need to meet the eligibility criteria before hiring a foreign domestic worker (FDW).

Who is eligible

To hire an FDW, you must:

Be 21 years old and above
Not be an undischarged bankrupt
Have the mental capacity to fully understand and discharge your responsibility as an employer.

MOM will also consider your financial ability to hire, maintain and upkeep the FDW in an acceptable accommodation.

Refer to this pre-hiring checklist before deciding whether to hire an FDW, also available in Malay, Mandarin and Tamil.

You should not be diagnosed with any medical condition that would impair your ability to exercise supervision and control over the well-being of the FDW. Examples of such medical conditions include Alzheimer, dementia and schizophrenia which can cause symptoms such as severe memory lapses, confusion, emotional instability, progressive loss of mental ability, paranoia, etc.

Hiring a second FDW

MOM will consider applications for a second FDW if you have caregiving needs, such as having 2 or more children below the age of 18 or a parent or parent-in-law over 60 years old living with you.

You will be assessed on your financial ability to hire, maintain and upkeep more than one FDW in acceptable accommodation.

Use the pass map to get an idea of the steps you need to take when hiring an FDW.

Security bond requirements for Foreign Domestic Worker

You need to buy a security bond for your helper, unless she is Malaysian. You can buy the bond at any bank or insurance company.

What is a security bond

A security bond is a binding pledge to pay the government (up to $5000) if you break the law or the conditions governing the employment of a helper. You need a bond for every helper you employ, unless she is Malaysian.

Bonds usually take the form of an insurance. The insurers guarantee to pay the government should you break the rules; then the insurers pursue you for the money.

You cannot ask your helper to pay for the bond.

When to buy the bond

Before your helper arrives in Singapore, you must buy these for her:

Security bond
Medical insurance
Personal accident insurance.

You can buy these items as a package or separately.

Please ensure that your insurer sends MOM the security bond details (takes up to 3 working days) before she arrives and that the bond takes effect on her arrival date. If not, she will be refused entry and you will have to pay to send her home.

You can check the status of the security bond.

When the bond will be discharged

You will be discharged from the security bond liability only if you meet all of these conditions:

You have cancelled the Work Permit.
The helper has returned home.
You did not breach any of the conditions of the security bond.

If all conditions are met, the security bond will usually be discharged one week after your helper left Singapore.

You’ll be notified by post when the security bond is discharged.

When the bond will be forfeited

Your security bond may be forfeited if:

You or your helper violate any of the conditions of the Work Permit or security bond.
You don’t pay her salary on time.
You fail to send her back when her Work Permit is expired, revoked or cancelled, or if she goes missing.
If the helper goes missing, half of the security bond ($2,500) will be forfeited if you have made reasonable effort to locate her and have filed a police report.

You will not be liable for your helper’s violations (such as those relating to pregnancy) if you can prove that you have:

Informed her of the Work Permit conditions she must comply with.
Reported a violation when you first become aware of it.

Insurance requirements for Foreign Domestic Worker

You need to buy medical and personal accident insurance for your helper. Find out the coverage required and how to submit the insurance details.

Before your helper arrives in Singapore, you must buy medical insurance and personal accident insurance as part of your medical obligations to her.

You cannot pass on the cost of purchasing the insurance to your helper.

Medical Insurance

You need to buy medical insurance with a coverage of at least $15,000 per year for inpatient care and day surgery during your helper’s stay in Singapore.

You also need to submit the medical insurance details online when you are issuing or renewing your helper’s Work Permit. You can get your employment agency to submit the details for you.

This is to protect your helper and her family by providing a lump sum compensation if she suffers from permanent disability or passes away due to an accident.

The compensation must be made payable to your helper or her beneficiaries.

Pre-employment medical examination for FDW

You need to send your foreign domestic worker (FDW) for a medical examination before her Work Permit is issued. Find out the requirements for the check-up.

You must send your helper for a medical examination by a Singapore-registered doctor within 2 weeks of her arrival in Singapore. Bring along the medical examination form when she goes for the tests.

Her Work Permit will only be issued if she passes the medical examination. Otherwise, she will have to be sent home.

The medical examination screens the helper for 4 types of infectious disease (tuberculosis, HIV, syphilis and malaria) and checks if she is fit to work.

You may want to send her for more tests if you have specific concerns about her health.

If you want to know the results of the medical examination, you can ask the doctor for a copy of the report.

For transfer FDWs, you need to send your worker for the six-monthly medical examination, if it is due.

Six-monthly medical examination (6ME) for Foreign Domestic Worker (FDW)

During your FDW’s employment, you must send her for a medical screening every six months. This medical examination screens for pregnancy and infectious diseases such as syphilis, HIV and tuberculosis.

Your helper is only due for pregnancy and syphilis tests.

When to send your FDW for 6ME

You will receive a notification letter and 6ME form by post when your helper’s 6ME is due. You must send her for the 6ME before the due date.

You can also log in to the FDW eService to check the previous 6ME’s date. You can then know when the next one is due, and also reprint the 6ME form.

If your FDW is on overseas leave

If the 6ME is due when your helper is away on overseas leave, you can request to postpone it until she returns.

Prepare the following information:

Helper’s full name, Work Permit number and date of birth.
Helper’s return flight details.
Your details:

Send to MOM the information and request to postpone using iSubmit. Choose option 5: Work Permit Application Matters for Foreign Domestic Worker (Supporting documents and Appeals) and 6ME for FDW & FW.

If your FDW’s employment is ending soon

You can choose not to send your helper for the 6ME if you are sending her home within 1 month after the 6ME is due.
