Helper not entitled to statutory holidays during the first three months?

[carang]

everyone has their own ideas what is acceptable and what is not.

i think the misunderstanding arose from hk2008's use of "currently working as a domestic helper". that could be read two ways:
1) currently employed as in, you have a contract as a FDH
2) currently at work as a FDH

i believe that she meant the second, however, i think happyv thought it was the first. either way.... doesn't have much to do with the original post.

take a breath and enjoy your weekend folks!

Hi LeahH,
Glad you are OK with this. I treat my helper the way I want to be treated. However, I'd prefer her not to use my computer, let alone internet. I had stored a lot of personal/confidential stuff like family budget(recently designed), payslips copies and bank statements, etc. So I have a computer login password.

Thanks! Carang. I just felt that I was suddently attacked out of the blue...You are right. I'm gonna enjoy a relaxing weekend as I've already got enough good advice for my question.

"I'm hoping you are not currently working as a helper, because if you still are, it's just showed that you have rather bad work ethics by writing on this forum when you are supposed to be working for your employer. " (HK2008)

Either way, you are accusing her of having a poor work ethic, which is unwarranted, as you have no idea of the specifics of her employment, or her relationship with her employers. She has as much right to post here as anyone else.
