"Mary", a Filipina barista and cleaner, alleged that her labour supply employer was withholding two months of salary, end of service benefits and a ticket to the Philippines.
取られた措置: Mary complained to the Labour Relations department; her employer was asked to mediate but placed an absconding case against her. She was arrested and spent two nights in police custody. Her employer turned her out of the accommodation. Mary managed to clear her name by providing witnesses who bore evidence to her not running away from the accommodation. Her case then moved to the Labour Dispute Resolution Committee where she was given a positive verdict, but as of July 2020 had not received outstanding wages, nor the (then required) non-objection certificate to allow her to find alternative employment.
