Document background
The Certificate Of Employment For Housemaid is a critical document in the Philippine domestic employment sector, mandated by the Kasambahay Law (Republic Act No. 10361) and related labor regulations. It serves multiple purposes: providing formal documentation of employment history, verifying compliance with mandatory benefits and protections, and supporting domestic workers in their career progression or overseas employment applications. The certificate should be issued upon the conclusion of employment or upon request during active employment, containing detailed information about the employment period, duties performed, and the employer's assessment of the worker's performance. This document is particularly important in the Philippines, where domestic work is formally recognized and regulated, requiring specific documentation to protect both employers' and domestic workers' rights.
