From 1 June, there will be a new telephone helpline (1800-FDW-HELP or 1800-339-4357) for foreign domestic workers.

The Foreign Domestic Worker Association for Social Support & Training, or FAST in short, made the announcement at its Mother's Day workshop on Sunday.

For a start, the 24-hour helpline will be available in English and Bahasa Indonesia.

The line will be manned by trained staff, volunteers and counsellors.

Callers' personal particulars will be kept confidential.

Foreign domestic workers can call the helpline for any work-related enquiries.
