OFW contract verification ensures that the Filipino has a job and an employer, as well as that the terms of the contract meet the POEA and host government’s minimum requirements. It will guarantee that Filipinos who are staying in Malaysia are legal and necessary, as well as prevent problems with Malaysian authorities, who are notoriously strict when it comes to immigration issues. This is helpful for Filipinos in Malaysia because many of them work as domestic workers on a contract basis.
