Where It Begins
The Ministry of Labour and Social Development from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia recently visited Singapore to learn about Singapore’s FDW management policies and implementation. As one of the important and successful initiatives implemented by the Singapore Ministry of Manpower, the visit cannot be complete without witnessing first-hand the Settling-in Programme (SIP) conducted by GMC.
GMC is glad to host this visit and share some of our experiences in conducting the SIP.
In a bid to recognize exemplary Employers and Foreign Domestic Workers for their efforts to make their relationships a success, the Association of Employment Agencies (Singapore), AEA(S) presented to both the Employer and their Foreign Domestic Worker (FDW) to recognize the determination that both had, beyond skills, language and cultural barrier. Supported by the Ministry of Manpower (MOM), the awards are given to deserving winners whom have worked together for the past 15 years or more.
GMC is proud to be sponsoring the awards and celebrating the joyous occasion with Embassy and MOM officials, NGOs, Employment Agencies and other Industry Partners.
GMC is pleased, once again, to be one of the sponsors for FDW annual event; the FAST FDW Day! Now into its 9th year, this annual event recognises the contributions of FDWs working in Singapore. FDW Day will be held on 21 October 2018 from 10am to 5pm at Institute of Education, College Central (ITE Ang Mo Kio). Do drop by GMC booth on the day!
GMC is pleased to host the visit by our distinguished guests from the Embassy of the Philippines on 8 August 2018. During the visit, our guests witnessed how GMC conducted the SIP for the newly arrived FDWs. We also shared how GMC contributes to the learning journeys of the FDWs through several initiatives like the free learning videos as well as GMC’s mobile application.
GMC is committed to continue to play an important role in each FDW’s working, living and learning journey!
GMC is honoured to host the visit by Ms Low Yen Ling, Senior Parliamentary Secretary in the Ministry of Manpower. During her visit, SPS Low observed how GMC conducts the Settling-in Programme (SIP) to the FDWs. We are glad that SPS Low found the SIP to be engaging and interactive. Being the pioneer ATP in providing the SIP, GMC has the relevant experience and expertise to effectively bring across important messages that will help FDWs settle and work in Singapore.
We look forward to continuing our close partnership with the Ministry of Manpower to deliver quality training programmes and hosting more such visits.

“All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy”
This is especially true for all of us at GMC! March 2018 has been a hectic month, being the only training provider offering the Settling-in Programme. We take challenges head on and we have proven ourselves yet again by being able to provide our services to all who have come to us! This is possible only because of our superior administrative team, dedicated and experienced training department, ample and quality training facilities and most of all, team spirit!
This is a significant milestone, and we look forward to many more such achievements ahead!
GMC is proud to sponsor and participate in FAST’s first fund raising event for FAST CARE. FAST CARE has helped many FDWs in need and resolved many cases that were brought to FAST’s attention. Many cases were successfully mediated and resolved.
