A Kuwait celebrity sparked outrage on social media after saying domestic workers in her country should not be given any days off.
Sondos Al Qattan, a social media celebrity and make-up artist, posted a video on Twitter criticizing the new rules for hiring Filipino domestic workers in Kuwait, StepFeed reported. Al Qattan said domestic workers should not be allowed to keep their passports and should not be given one day off per week.
“How can you have a ‘servant’ in your house who gets to keep their passport with them? If they ran away and went back to their country, who will refund me?” Al Qattan said in the video.
She said because of the new rules, she would not hire a Filipino domestic worker. Her video went viral and sparked outrage online. Hundreds of people defended domestic workers, saying they are not slaves and cannot be made to work non-stop. Some said domestic workers were human beings, not machines.
“Why don’t you work seven days a week and give your passport to your boss. Where’s your humanity?” one person asked on Twitter. “Treat her well and let her keep her passport because she isn’t your slave, but an employee who has responsibilities and rights,” another said.

What a demonic beauty, please ban her of taking any expatriate domestic helpers most especially Filipino. You dont deserve our service we don’t need you as well. Go to hell.
She’s just a typical Kuwaiti arrogant and heartless
Mga basura yan pag walang katulong yang Arabiana na yan,sila yung pinakaDogyot na tao sa mundo,sa panlabas lng may porma dahil sa make up nya pero amoy potok yan
Why worry about maids keeping their passports? If u treat them well, ur maid will stay as long as u need her. But if u treat them like hell, u sure get a hell of a maid. Scrub ur head with a hallowblock to think senseful. Dont hire a Filipino maid coz surely, she’s more intelligent than you!
She’s a beauty but her heart is a beast!
