In Singapore, the demand for household services has evolved with the introduction of the Household Services Scheme (HSS). This scheme allows companies like Adaptive Housekeeping to provide part-time domestic services, offering a flexible and efficient solution for families and individuals. In this blog, we’ll delve into the details of the Household Services Scheme and highlight the key differences between engaging a migrant domestic worker and the services of an HSS company.
The Household Services Scheme (HSS):
The Household Services Scheme is a game-changer for companies seeking to hire migrant workers to provide part-time domestic services. This includes a range of tasks such as home cleaning, grocery shopping, car-washing, and pet-sitting. Adaptive Housekeeping, operating under UEN: 202116467Z, embraces the opportunities presented by the HSS to offer tailored solutions for households in need of convenient and reliable services.
Engaging a Migrant Domestic Worker vs. HSS Services:
Living Arrangements:
- Migrant Domestic Worker: Lives with the employer and can only work for them.
- HSS Services: Workers are not required to live in the houses they serve and can be deployed to multiple locations on a part-time basis.
Scope of Work:
- Migrant Domestic Worker: Primarily focused on tasks within the employer’s home.
- HSS Services: Can provide select household services on a part-time basis, offering flexibility for families with varying needs.
Ad-Hoc Basis vs. Full-Time Engagement:
- Families with sporadic needs can benefit from HSS services on an ad-hoc basis.
- Engaging a full-time live-in migrant domestic worker might be more suitable for households requiring continuous assistance.
Why Choose HSS Services:
- Flexibility: HSS services offer flexibility for families with changing needs, allowing them to tailor services based on their requirements.
- Cost-Effective: Families can avoid the commitment and expenses associated with hiring a full-time live-in domestic worker, making HSS services a cost-effective alternative.
- Variety of Services: Adaptive Housekeeping, under the HSS, provides a range of services, ensuring that households can find the support they need without the constraints of a full-time arrangement.
Conclusion:
In conclusion, the Household Services Scheme brings a new dimension to the landscape of domestic services in Singapore. Adaptive Housekeeping, as a participant in the scheme, stands ready to offer tailored solutions for households seeking convenience and flexibility. Whether you need occasional cleaning, grocery assistance, or pet-sitting, the HSS allows families to access a variety of services without the commitments of engaging a full-time domestic worker.
