Domestic helpers need healthcare insurance

Domestic helpers need to have healthcare insurance to cover possible accidents at work or while on the way to work, says a state-run insurance company officer.
“Some domestic helpers do not live with their employers. Accident may happen while they are going to their workplace, or during work hour, for example, burn injuries,” PT Jamsostek's Yogyakarta marketing unit head Hasan Fahmi said Sunday as quoted by Antara news agency.
Hasan said that he found it essential to recognize the profession of domestic helpers and therefore provide them with health insurance.
