Yishun Employment ✓ ACRA Verified

Yishun Employment displays mid-range pricing, though specific placement fees are not published. As a market reference, new-hire placements at Singapore maid agencies typically cost S$1,500–3,500, while transfer helpers (already in Singapore on a current Work Permit) tend to be S$500–1,500. On top of the placement fee, budget for the helper's monthly salary (S$550–800 depending on nationality and experience) and the monthly MOM levy (S$300 standard, or S$60 concessionary for qualifying households with a child under 16, an elderly member aged 67 or above, or a person with disability). Confirm whether mandatory FDW insurance (~S$300–600/year), the Settling-In Programme, medical examination, and Work Permit application are bundled into the package or billed separately.

Every legitimate maid agency in Singapore must hold a MOM Employment Agency (EA) Licence, which is publicly verifiable on MOM's online EA directory by agency name or licence number. The licence number should appear on the agency's website, contracts, and invoices. At the time of this listing, Yishun Employment's EA Licence details were not provided — confirm the licence number directly with the agency and cross-check it on the MOM directory before paying any deposit. EA Grading runs from A+ to C; agencies rated A+ or A have stronger compliance track records and more robust complaint-handling processes. Hiring through an unlicensed agent is illegal, leaves you with no recourse if issues arise, and can void FDW insurance. Verify the EA Licence number on MOM's online EA directory before paying any deposit, and read the agency contract's replacement, refund, and early-termination clauses.

Standard replacement guarantees at Singapore maid agencies typically run for six months from the helper's arrival date. Confirm with Yishun Employment how many replacements are included within that window, what circumstances void the guarantee (for example, documented performance mismatch versus a change of mind), and what the cost of any additional replacement beyond the included allowance would be. Also clarify the early-termination process: if the placement breaks down outside the guarantee window, the household is responsible for the repatriation flight, Work Permit cancellation paperwork, and any refund or levy adjustments. Understanding these terms before signing avoids surprises later. Verify the EA Licence number on MOM's online EA directory before paying any deposit, and read the agency contract's replacement, refund, and early-termination clauses.
