Arrangements for Your Maid’s Rest Days

Selecting the Designated Rest Day

The rest day does not necessarily have to fall on a Sunday. Coordinate schedules to choose a day that suits both parties. Establish Departure and Return Times:

While there is no strict rule, ensure your maid has sufficient time for rest, ideally around 8 consecutive hours, following MOM guidelines. Plan for Rest Day Activities:

If she opts to stay at home, she should avoid work-related tasks. If she chooses to go out, she is free to spend the day as she pleases. However, it’s essential to remind her that engaging in additional work, known as moonlighting, is prohibited according to Singapore regulations.

To avoid conflicts between you and your maid, it is strongly recommended to document your agreement regarding her days off.

On her initial day off, provide clear directions for navigating to her destination and returning home.

This guidance is particularly beneficial if she is unfamiliar with transportation in Singapore or your neighborhood. It helps her orient herself and plan her day, ensuring she can return home at the agreed-upon time.
