Ref: Kalau cuci jendela bahagian luar atau bekerja pada konstruksi
bangunan yang tinggi hendaklah pakai "safety belt" atau tali untuk ikat
pinggang yang dikaitkan pada tiang atau tembok etc yang bisa menjamin
kalau terpeleset tidak jatuh dan mati konyol. Apakah keselematan bekerja
tidak diberitahukan kepada TKI/TKW ? Ataukah nilai kehidupan warga NKRI
tidak dianggap berharga oleh penguasa rezim Jakarta?

Latest Indonesian Maid Death Prompts Warning from Singapore Minister
April 23, 2012
Singapore. Singaporeans have been urged not to insist that their domestic
workers clean the outside of windows in high-rise homes.
Halimah Yacob, the Minister of State for Community Development, Youth and
Sports, said on Sunday that there was no need for the outside of windows
to be cleaned if they were already clean on the inside.
She was responding to reporters' questions about the seven Indonesian
maids who had fallen to their deaths so far this year while cleaning
windows or hanging out the laundry.
Speaking on the sidelines of a graduation ceremony for Indonesian domestic
workers who had earned academic qualifications at the Indonesian School in
Singapore, she called for maids to be barred from opening window grilles
and for employers to keep the keys to these grilles from their maids.
"They must constantly drum that into the maid's head - that there's no
need for her to open the grilles, there's no need for her to clean the
outside of windows - and once they do that, they will be able to save a
lot of lives," she said.
"It's unnecessary death, and it's really very sad."
Halimah, who has spoken out several times about the welfare of maids and
foreign workers, noted that many foreign domestic workers here are from
rural villages and thus unused to high-rise buildings.
"Having to work in such high-rise buildings is quite a nightmare for them,
so we need to take extra precautions to protect them, without compromising
the standard and quality of work at home," she said.
She said she was pleased that the Ministry of Manpower was looking into
the matter.
MOM is improving a compulsory half-day safety-training class for newly
arrived maids, which will be part of a new mandatory settling-in program
for them. It has also said it will prosecute employers who fail to give
their maids a safe work environment.
"They want to make sure that these incidents are not repeated because,
frankly, there's no need for our domestic workers to fall to their deaths.
We just need to take precautions, particularly on the part of employers,"
Halimah said.
