The Center for Domestic Employees (CDE) noted the many letters to the Forum on Oct 16 and 17 regarding the safekeeping of domestic workers' salaries.
As part of the labor movement, CDE believes that every worker in Singapore must get paid for hard work. No worker should have his salary kept by the employers.
This cardinal rule applies to foreign domestic workers (FDWs) as well.
They should have control over their salaries, as do all employees in other professions.
It is the reason CDE has been advocating for FDWs.
Do you want a safe place to keep your money?
So far only POSE has come forward to a pilot project last year, which includes CDE and selected employment agencies assisting FDWs to submit applications for POSB payroll accounts.
We offer other services.
As of Oct 7, Employees of a newcomer and a transferring member of the POSB account is a member of the workflow issuance process, all to be done online.
Together with our partners, CDE has also been running financial literacy workshops for our members.
CDE will be working with industry stakeholders to enhance transparency in the hiring of an FDW.
We believe that making the cost is more important than any other source of salary disputes.
