I had a maid, and I was advised by agency to hold the passport and give a copy to her .. and when she asks me whether I trust her or not, dumb me was wondering why I was being a 'slave master' and I forgot she was holding the original of the Work Pass, which is sufficient for any check in Singapore .. and gave her the passport ..Jobo wrote:Wow. She has some nerve wanting to see her husband after she already sees him once a month! I hope she does run away with her passport since you seem like a total d-bag.
Do I assume that you have a maid ?? And you are one of those who encourage maids to Boyfriends ??Jobo wrote:Well I. Your situation it definitely made sense to get rid of her since you should never have someone in your home you don't trust, but I still think it's wrong to hold someone's passport. If you're holding it because you don't trust them, maybe they shouldn't be in your home.
Not to get into a shooting match, but did you forget that JB IS A FOREIGN COUNTRY ?? ?AND FROM JB - and with an Asean Passport - (assuming she is from ASEAN) she can go anywhere, and get into any trouble .. and legally, you are as good as a legal guardian and anything that happens to the maid is YOUR RESPONSIBILITYJR8 wrote:All respect to your experience of counseling maids, but is holding their passports and so say denying them the option to go to JB on their day off if they so wished legal?
I don't think what an agency says matters, what does the law say?
