More employers are wiring up their homes with closed-circuit
television systems (CCTVs) to monitor their maids, but at least two
maids have raised questions about the invasion of privacy.
Last month, a maid known as Chona De Guzman posted a comment on
the Ministry of Manpower's (MOM) Facebook page asking if it was
right for her employer to install a CCTV camera in her room.
It prompted a reply from another maid, Ms Joan Asequia Gonzales,
who said she faced the same situation at her employer's home.
'I don't have privacy,' she wrote in the post.
