Some Tips to keep aware before signing the Standard Employment Contract

- Do the job interview at the Employer house so to avoid any surprises when you start your job.
- Say NO to any Employment Agencies who force you to sign a Contract without further checking all the important details of the new work place.
- Meet the family members of Employer.
- Ask all possible tasks and arrangements that you are going to handle in the day-to-day basis.
- If you’re replacing a previous Domestic Worker, ask questions on what happened and why the previous Worker left.
Check before signing any Contract…
- Make sure the address stated in contract is the house you have visited and no other else.
- Review the Contract specially the contents in Page No. 3:

- 2.B – Number of Adults and Children or Person/s requiring constant care or attention
- 3.A – Your Room (to see if you have good privacy and resting space)
- 3.B – Facilities to be provided
