The tightened Covid-19 border controls have left the migrant domestic worker (MDW) market strained, as fewer helpers have been allowed into Singapore since the pandemic.
This has led to the popularity of transfers among MDWs currently working here, but the process has not been smooth.
According to non-governmental organisations and employment agencies, MDWs have to obtain their current employers’ permission before they may transfer to a new employer, and many have been denied transfers amid the pandemic as employers claim it would be hard to find a new helper.

SINGAPORE - Former domestic worker Parti Liyani, an Indonesian who was acquitted in a high-profile case last year of stealing from her then-employer, is making an unprecedented bid to seek compensation from the Attorney-General's Chambers (AGC).
She is the first person to be making an application for compensation under Section 359(3) of the Criminal Procedure Code, which was introduced in 2010, prosecutors told the High Court on Friday (April 16).
The provision states that if an accused is acquitted of any charge, and if it is proved to the satisfaction of the court that the prosecution was frivolous or vexatious, the court may order a compensation sum of up to $10,000.

SINGAPORE - The abuse and torture suffered by Myanmar domestic helper Piang Ngaih Don is appalling and should never have happened, said Manpower Minister Josephine Teo.
She also urged the community to help look out for and report signs of abuse of foreign workers.
Ms Piang was 24 when she died on July 26, 2016. She weighed just 24kg then, having lost 38 per cent of her body weight since she started working here on May 28, 2015.
In a Facebook post on Wednesday night (Feb 24), the minister extended her condolences to Ms Piang's family and said the Government takes the protection of foreign domestic workers (FDWs) seriously.
