Today on International Women's Day (IWD). We celebrate the women that we have the pleasure to work with at Fair Employment Agency. See our video message and an IWD feature including Grace Cheng, our General Manager, below.
This month, we are also celebrating the one year anniversary of our Tsuen Wan Branch office! We opened our office in Tsuen Wan last March with the goal of better serving Hong Kong families and workers with our two locations.
Here's the Tsuen Wan Branch on Google Maps! Our two branches work closely together to connect a wider pool of employers and domestic helpers. Please spread the word about our two offices!
Thank you for your support always,
the Fair Agency team

Hygiene Policy & Rest Day Arrangements
With continued concerns about the Covid situation, Domestic helpers are still entitled to their consecutive-24-hour rest day each week. Discuss solutions that work for everyone and help everyone feel comfortable. Read our article for more: Can I ask my domestic helper to stay-in during her day off?

Part-Time Workers
Domestic helpers on a foreign domestic helper visa are not permitted to take part-time work or any duties outside of those stipulated on the standard contract. We've gathered some resources for when you need to hire a local part-time domestic helper: Information on hiring a local part-time helper.

Visa Extension and Contract Renewal
While you and your domestic helper can extend visa or renew contract yourself, our experienced team can take that off your plate. Our service includes document preparation and in-person follow-ups at Immigration. Contact us to inquire today.

Parting Ways & Termination
If you are already a client at Fair Employment Agency, you know our Client Care team is here to answer questions and provide guidance to both employers and domestic helpers. Make sure to reach out with any questions you have.
We can also help domestic helpers whose employers are relocating. If you are relocating, please let your domestic helper know they can come to us for help to find their next job.
