This is because they would most probably prefer to stay with their family. They probably miss their family after not being able to see them for a long time. I also think that generally, people would not like to live with others as it can be awkward to live with complete strangers, therefore, if the workers live in dorm, they are living under the same roof as people they do not know and will be uncomfortable.]]> 2020-11-10 08:24:08 UTC https://padlet.com/rma61/xvwih9evl9esmiek/wish/907568244 s102039181 https://padlet.com/rma61/xvwih9evl9esmiek/wish/907577809 Five, based on https://www.mom.gov.sg/newsroom/press-replies/2014/employment-laws-in-place-to-protect-foreign-worker]]> 2020-11-10 08:27:41 UTC https://padlet.com/rma61/xvwih9evl9esmiek/wish/907577809 Kah Jin https://padlet.com/rma61/xvwih9evl9esmiek/wish/907580570 They work for the same working hours as a normal Singaporean which is 44 hours a week and they earn about $450 a month after deducting work permit fee and etc so its around $20 a day]]> 2020-11-10 08:28:42 UTC https://padlet.com/rma61/xvwih9evl9esmiek/wish/907580570 Iffah s102040761 https://padlet.com/rma61/xvwih9evl9esmiek/wish/907582603 Their work hours should not exceed 8 hours a day or 44 hours a week.
