No Jobs for Farmers and Domestic Helpers in Australia

Posted by: carmela

Apparently, the news that OFWs are in demand in Australia encourages unscrupulous individuals to pretend as legitimate recruiters and victimized innocent OFWs. Because of this, the POEA issued an advisory against illegal recruiters that offer jobs for farm workers and household helpers in the said country.

The Philippine consulate in Australia informed, “There are no job openings for domestic helpers and farm workers in Australia. Any manpower agency that claims to be recruiting maids and farm workers for Australia is deceiving applicants.”

The consulate added, “Illegally-hired foreign workers in Australia are exposed to abuses, hazards, and risks. If they are caught, they are deported and blacklisted from future re-entry into Australia.”
