COVID-19: Advisory for those with foreign domestic workers (FDWs)

All FDWs arriving in S’pore after 16 March 2020 must serve a 14-day Stay Home Notice (SHN).

Employers must:
– Obtain MOM’s approval before confirming the FDW’s flight to S’pore
– Ensure a place of residence for the FDW to serve the SHN

✅ FDWs are strongly encouraged to stay at home on their rest day. Employers should not assign work to FDWs on rest days, or they can compensate in lieu.
✅ For FDWs with plans to travel home, employers should urge them to postpone their travel until the situation stabilises.
