we pay our male helper/driver 8k. but i think we overpay him compared to our other helpers, but that's what his last employer paid him apparently.
we also get him to do all the cleaning, ironing/ folding, deal with air con filters, and do general household maintenance and repairs. but he has an easy life compared to our other helper (i think she might do a lot of his work).

You can hire a domestic helper who happens to have a driving licence, they can then drive the kids to school, it which case the minimum is the same as all domestic helpers. But I think the minimum wage for a ' driver' is a lot higher. Although personally I don't know why they should earn so much more, all the drivers do around where I live is wash the car, and sleep for most of the day in the car, often with the engine idling...I know thats not really relevant, just annoys me.

do you think $8k is too little? That is what I am being told. That would be all-in (food, travel, living expenses and salary).
Thank you
