Filipino Domestic Helpers will receive $400 minimum wage fare in Dubai
According to online report from GMA, Placement agencies in the Emirate of Dubai have agreed to give a $400 (more or less P16,500) monthly minimum salary for Filipino household workers, following the steps recently taken by Saudi Arabia.
According to Labor Secretary Rosalinda Baldoz, this was after licensed recruitment agencies (LRAs) in the Philippines signed a joint statement of commitment with their counterpart placement agencies in Dubai.
Baldoz said the signing will pave the way for the full implementation of the many provisions of her department’s Household Reform Package for household service workers (HSWs), including the payment of the minimum monthly salary of $400 and non-charging of excessive fees.
