The newly formed ACC Singapore Pro Bono Committee held its first event, entitled “Employing a Foreign Domestic Worker: Know What Is the Right Thing To Do.”
This event was held in conjunction with Justice Without Borders (JWB), a non-profit based in Singapore that focuses on providing free legal services to domestic workers who have been victimized by their employers, and was sponsored by Hogan Lovells Lee & Lee.
Douglas MacLean, the founder of JWB, provided an overview of the ways in which domestic workers can be taken advantage of by their employers, and gave the audience some insight into the legal work JWB does, including cross-border litigation to assist foreign domestic workers in collecting unpaid salary after they have returned to their home countries.
