Your work in Hong Kong as a Filipina domestic helper starts after signing up a contract with your employer. By affixing your signature on that agreement, you will be expected to comply with the rules. Keep whatever the contract binds you to do in order to keep your job and avoid getting terminated. Termination of your job in Hong Kong may be caused by one of 7 reasons which are listed below:
If you guaranteed a friend on a debt that she wasn't able to pay, the collector will keep on bothering you. He will even call your employer's home phone too often. When your employer gets annoyed by what's going on, he might be forced to fire you out. Therefore, as much as you can, avoid signing up as a guarantor to anyone's debt in Hong Kong.
Only a few may know but jealousy can be a cause of termination. If your employer's wife starts becoming jealous of you, you can be terminated. This would likely happen to avoid complicating matters between you and your employer's family.
Being able to communicate well can also be a reason for terminating a Filipina housemaid in Hong Kong. Sometimes, there will be elders in the house who can only speak Cantonese. If you do not know how to relate to that person, that may lead to employment problems.
When you're employer expects too much from you and you cannot meet her expectations, it can also lead to termination. Therefore, it will be important for you to assess if you can work for a certain person or not.
Employers have the right to terminate the service of a disobedient maid. Therefore, make sure that you are obedient to them. Aside from being hard working and skilled, the attitude is also an important factor that employers look for in a domestic helper.
Stealing is not just a bad attitude. It is a crime as well. If you will be caught in this doing, your termination will come in a flash and you might have no choice but to serve a sentence in jail. There may be temptations in your employer's house but keep in mind that your job and your dignity as a Filipina are more important than obtaining those items through theft.
There are some cases where in your termination is not your fault. Sometimes, the problem is in your employer's financial status. Cases such as bankruptcy, loss of job and others will leave him no choice but do some cost cutting strategies, which may include living without a maid. He may come to a decision of terminating your service, not because you did not work well but because he will not be able to pay your salary anymore.
