Maids Get Stressed Living And Working 24 Hours A Day

“Domestic workers get stressed out living and working together with Singaporean families 24 hours a day. Some also don’t get salaries until they have finished paying back the loans to their agents back home.”

Psychologist Daniel Koh of Insights Mind Centre said a “combination of factors like different environment and cultures, and the stress from change” could trigger a breakdown.

He added: “We don’t know if these maids already have any underlying issues. They usually don’t have anybody to talk to at work and as with all things, there is only so much one person can take.”
