[ POEA DEPARTMENT ORDER NO. 15, S. 1995, May 02, 1995 ]

TEMPORARY SUSPENSION OF THE DEPLOYMENT OF DOMESTIC HELPERS TO PALAU



Pursuant to the report of the Philippine Head of Post in Guam on the high incidence of abuse committed by Palau employers against Filipino domestic helpers and monthly wages way below the standard set by the government for overseas employment, the deployment of domestic helpers to Palau is hereby temporarily suspended.

However, domestic helpers on emergency leave or on mid-term vacation are not covered by the temporary deployment suspension.

The suspension shall stay until such time shall appropriate protective and welfare mechanisms are put in place.

This Order takes effect immediately.

For strict compliance.
