Curhat TKW di Arab Saudi Digaji Lebih Rendah dari UMR Jakarta:Ā Rumah Gede Cuma Ada 1 Babu

"TKW complaints in Saudi Arabia: Paid less than the minimum wage in Jakarta: Only one maid in a big house."

Dream - Besides looking for rupiah in their own country, there are some Indonesian citizens who work abroad, commonly known as Indonesian Migrant Workers (TKI) or Indonesian Migrant Workers (PMI). For example, there are Female Migrant Workers (TKW) who usually work as domestic helpers (ART). Many assume that workers who become TKW will receive much higher wages than in Indonesia. However, not everyone experiences it.

TKW in Saudi Arabia

A domestic worker who became a housemaid in Dammam City, Saudi Arabia, shared her experience. In a video uploaded on the TikTok account @ewikdebok, this woman showed how spacious her employer's house is.

"He showed every corner of the employer's house, starting from the entrance, living room, middle room, television room, and kitchen. The size is not to be underestimated. The woman even admitted that her own room is also spacious. However, unfortunately, a house as big as that only has one housemaid, which is herself."

"The house is only big enough for one servant, and they don't even know that I am offended by their words. Because all I can do is respond with a smile," she wrote in the caption.

He admitted that he is often asked to do other tasks even though the previous work is not finished. "Having a lot of work is already normal. What annoys me is when I'm in the middle of doing it, madam calls me and says sur'ah (quickly). But it's not finished yet," said the woman in the comment.

In addition, he has to clean the toilet every hour because his employer wants a clean house. "In madam's room with her child, there is a toilet so I have to work for at least 1 hour because it has to be really clean šŸ˜," he wrote in the comment.

Then how much is the salary? This woman admitted to being paid only like a domestic helper in Jakarta with a nominal amount of Rp4.8 million per month. "My salary is 5 Indonesian money minus 200 (4.8 million rupiah). I even saw a TikTok video of people in Jakarta and Bali with babysitter salaries of almost 6 million," wrote the woman in the comment.

There are many who ask why their salary is only in that amount. She explained that her employer sends her salary to the place where she is under Rp15 million rupiah, then she only receives Rp4.8 million. "They pay a lot, sis, to the office almost 15 million but from the office they only give 4800 Arab money 1200," she wrote in the comment.
