Dos and don’ts to avoid trouble with maids
+ Give the maid a true picture of what to expect before she comes to work for you. Make her understand she is not coming for a holiday abroad+ Choose a maid who does not have an ailing husband or small kids back home. They may have genuine concerns and can easily become homesick+ Wait for a month before you stamp the visa on the passport. That gives you enough time to study her behaviour and commitment to work.+ Don’t let your housemaid go out unaccompanied for a long period of time. You are inviting trouble.+ Always keep monthly salary slips and make your maid signs on them on their pay day. You may need to show proof at the embassy.
