OFW fired, sent back to PH after inviting boyfriend inside employers’ home

An overseas Filipina worker (OFW) in Saudi was sent back to the Philippines after inviting her boyfriend inside her employer’s residence.

According to the OFW’s recruitment agency, the employers, who hired the Filipina as a domestic helper, forgot something on their way to their way to their job and decided to return home, reported GMA News.

Upon arrival, however, the employers discovered the Filipina with her boyfriend in their living room.

The employers immediately called the authorities to arrest the Filipina but later on decided not to pursue the case after the request of the recruitment agency.

The Filipina was sent back to the Philippines following the incident.

Labor Attache Nasser Munder reminded OFWs to respect the country’s culture and the family to avoid facing legal problems.

“Nananawagan ako na iwasan gumawa ng mga ganoong bagay, alam naman po natin na napakahigpit ng host country lalo na sa kaso ng imoralidad, sana hindi na ito maulit dahil kami dito sa Philippine Overseas Labor Office (POLO) hindi lang isa hanggang tatlong beses naming nakakatanggap ng ganyang mga kaso iwasan nyo magkaroon ng boyfriend, lolokohin lang kayo nang mga iyan, ang ipinunta nyo dito ay magtrabaho, kung love ang hahanapin nyo ay duon na lang kayo sa atin,” Munder said.
