KUALA LUMPUR: Indonesians maids will be given one day off a week and be allowed to keep their passports during their stay in the country.
The Home Ministry, in a statement yesterday, stated that the rest day requirement would be enforced after amendments were made to the Employment Act 1955.
These terms were agreed on by Malaysia and Indonesia at the third meeting of the Working Committee on the Recruitment and Placement of Indonesian Maids on Aug 20, it added.
The Malaysian delegation was led by the ministry's secretary-general Datuk Seri Mahmood Adam.
The meeting also agreed that the temporary work permits of Indonesian maids who ran away from their employers would be revoked immediately and the maids would not be allowed to enter Malaysia again to work. -- Bernama
