A Filipino domestic worker escaped from her employer’s home after she was allegedly abused and assaulted by her female employer.
The maid sought help from the Philippine Embassy and she was taken to a hospital for medical treatment – to get a medical report of her injuries, the Arab Times reported.
A photo run in the online paper showed the maid in a black hijab and what appeared to be injuries or cuts to her face.
The domestic worker told police that she and her employer got into an argument which caused the employer to start beating her.
A case was filed with police, who said the employer would be summoned for interrogation.
On Thursday, Philippine Labor secretary Silvestre Bello said the ban on Filipino workers being deployed to Kuwait may be partly lifted once the agreement between the Philippine and Kuwaiti governments is signed, GMA News reported.
“If there will be a lifting, it will only be for a moment – a lifting of the ban with respect to skilled workers,” Bello said.

Tama ka marlyn acuyado…..skills lng kc pagkatolong dito sus ko kawawa sobra naawa aqo…..pagnakikita ko sa fb.

Totally ban for dh …not to skilled workers.kc once na lift un ban ..di na mawawala un maltreatment sa mga dh

That is exactly right sir, the best thing to do is make good laws about dh to secure their safety but infairness to other Arab there are many of them are good employer……
sana huwag na padalhan pa ng mga katulong ang mga Muslim country lalo Kong maraming problema
DH MUST BE BAN 4EVER EVEN THEY SIGN THE AGREEMENT ITS USELESS THEY DNT FOLLOW THE CONTRACT OF THIER HOUSEHOLD WORKERS THEY ARE ONLY SIGNING BUT IN REALITY THEY ARE KEFFEE THEY DONT CARE AT ALL…SO MUCH BETTER BAN 4EVER ….
