Gues what?:  Indy Barends takes maids on out

J

AKARTA: Everyone deserves a grand day out - including housemaids, presenter Mendya '€œIndy'€ Barends says.

The 43-year-old told kompas.com recently that she always gave her maids off time in gratitude for the work that they do.

'€œEvery month, I always take them somewhere,'€ she said.

She said the trips are meant to make the maids felt comfortable working with her, adding that overwork can reduce productivity. '€œLet them enjoy their free time so they don'€™t get bored.'€

Indy also gives her maids some pocket money on the holiday.

Indy married Benyamin Sarmanella and the couple has two sons, Manuel Tobias Sarmanella and Raphael Sarmanella.
