What Are Helper House Rules?
Helper house rules - also called a domestic helper code of conduct - are a written communication guide that helps Singapore employers and their helpers set clear expectations from day one. Unlike an employment contract, house rules focus on day-to-day household routines that are specific to your home.
What Do House Rules Typically Cover?
Common areas include working hours and rest time, meal arrangements, mobile phone use, visitor policies, care routines for children or elderly family members, cleaning schedules, and dietary restrictions. Our template covers these topics in a balanced way, while the personalised generator above lets you include only the rules relevant to your household.
How to Use This Guide
Download or generate your house rules PDF, then go through it together with your helper on the first day.
