The nanny I hired for tens of thousands of yuan was actually an illegal worker, and you can lose both your money overnight! How deep is the water behind this industry?
High-end nanny or foreign-speaking housekeeper is hard to find in the market. Some labor intermediaries took advantage of the loopholes and introduced foreign nannies illegally stranded in our country to families in need, and charged high agency fees. There are chaos in this.

Foreign nanny market gave birth to "black intermediaries" and earned 30,000 to 50,000
Enter the words foreign nanny online, and you can see many advertisements posted by agents providing housekeeping services. The advertisement shows that they mainly recommend people from abroad to engage in housekeeping services.
CCTV Finance " Economic Half Hour " reporter contacted several intermediary companies online. Soon, some housekeeping service intermediary companies sent a large number of photos and videos of "foreign nannies". Some of them are from the Philippines, and some are from Malaysia .
△Photos and videos of "foreign nanny" According to the contact information left by the intermediary company, in early August, a reporter from CCTV Finance's "Economic Half Hour" rushed to Guangzhou. In an office building, the reporter met a staff member who claimed to be Wanbang Shengshi Company. She told the reporter that she was the housekeeping service agent who was the foreign nanny. But the meeting place was the place where the agency temporarily rented, not the company's location. The staff mysteriously said there was a reason to do so.
△Foreign nanny agency staff It turns out that according to the "Exit and Entry Administration Law of the People's Republic of China" and the "Employment Management Regulations of Foreigners in China", no unit or individual may hire foreigners who have not obtained work permits and work residence permits. Only by obtaining the "Foreign Employment Certificate" and a foreigner's residence certificate can you find employment in China.
The reason why the staff of the agency company said that their work is special is that the foreign nanny she was in hand did not obtain a formal and legal visa issued by relevant state departments. To put it simply, they are foreign illegal workers.

staff said that the foreigners who have been stranded in China for a long time in their company are recruited through some foreign agents. Once consumers pay the agency fee, the company will share the money with foreign agents in proportion. The housekeeping service fees for foreign nannies vary according to the consumption level of the region, with an average price ranging from 6,000 yuan to 10,000 yuan per month. Some agency fees are paid 20%-25% in one lump sum, while others are charged a commission on a monthly basis.
This business service company has introduced seventy or eighty illegally stranded overseas people to many domestic families in the past few years, and the business is doing very well. Afterwards, a reporter from CCTV Finance's "Economic Half Hour" met another agency from Shenzhen. The agency also brought a foreign nanny who came to interview. The foreign nanny had no certificate and was just an illegal worker. When the reporter asked who guaranteed the foreign nanny, the agent told the truth. In fact, he had no company at all. To put it bluntly, he was just a person. He just had a relationship and could find foreign nanny and took them to solicit business everywhere. He personally earned intermediary fees. He also took out the WeChat transfer records of his transactions with other consumers.

However, the intermediary emphasized that he does not want to leave any written agreement or contract because the foreign nanny he is looking for is not legal. If you really feel that it is not safe, you can provide him with a company. He can find a new foreign nanny to come and apply for a work visa to enter the country, and the cost is 50,000 yuan.

△Jasmine Home Website However, the company rejected the request for a reporter from CCTV Finance's "Economic Half Hour" to come to interview.It turned out that they were exposed by reporters in 2015 for accepting illegally stranded foreign nanny. The introducer Ms. Xu said that their company has been an intermediary for nearly ten years and has a high profit. The agency fee is 35,000 yuan, and the nanny's salary is 8,000 yuan.
Like the first two agents, the foreign nanny brought by Ms. Xu also has an expiration visa and does not have a legal identity. What surprised CCTV Finance's "Economic Half Hour" reporters was that this Jasmine Home was a formal housekeeping agency on the web. In fact, they didn't even have a company, and they signed a contract with individuals.
△Foreign nanny introducer Not only in Guangzhou, but also in Shanghai, reporters can also easily find the so-called housekeeping company that introduces foreign nanny. In Shanghai Liziyuan Business District, Yizhi International Housekeeping Company also claimed that it could provide services for foreign nannies and arranged several foreign nannies to come for interviews. As expected, these foreign nannies also do not have legal visas.
Although the staff of Shanghai Yizhi International Housekeeping Company came up with a contract to hire foreign nannies, he stated that this contract is illegal because it is illegal for foreign nannies to come to China.
△Staff of Shanghai Yizhi International Housekeeping Company In the Liziyuan Business District, a housekeeping company called Youjiang Mengsao even openly launched a service sign to provide foreign nanny at the company's door. Of course, the foreign nanny here does not have a legal identity. As long as the contract is signed successfully, the company will charge a service fee of 10,000 yuan per year. If delivered for 2 years in one go, the company can give consumers a discount of 5,000 yuan.

Smuggling foreign nanny is an illegal act
Should be sentenced to more than 7 years fixed-term imprisonment or life imprisonment
0 my country has not currently opened the domestic and foreign nanny market, so it is impossible for foreign nanny with legal status in my country to exist. All intermediaries and housekeeping companies that provide services cannot provide any service guarantee to consumers. In June 2018, the Shanghai No. 1 Intermediate People's Court tried a case of organizing foreign nanny smuggling. The defendant Liu organized 24 foreign nannies to smuggle them into our country and then transported them to consumers' homes in various places, collecting more than 1.2 million yuan in employer money. In the end, Liu was sentenced to eight years in prison and a fine of 200,000 yuan by the Shanghai No. 1 Intermediate People's Court for organizing others to cross the border secretly.
△Judgement
Previous Judgement Trial Division of Shanghai No. 1 Intermediate People's Court Ma Yanyan: First, there have been organizations many times; second, organize others to sneak across the country's borders, with a large number of people; third, the amount of illegal income is huge. Therefore, according to law, a fixed-term imprisonment of more than 7 years or life imprisonment should be sentenced to a fine or confiscated property.
In fact, the illegal nanny hired by employers is not worried, and the resulting fraud cases are emerging one after another. After Ms. Lian from Beijing paid more than 30,000 yuan in agency fees, the foreign nanny who had not worked for a long time suddenly disappeared and all the information could not be contacted; Ms. Li from Harbin paid more than 70,000 yuan in agency fees. After working for a year, the foreign nanny also evaporated. Before leaving, she took away the jewelry and an iPad. The agent said that if they were asked to help find it, they would have to pay another 30,000 yuan.
△Victim Ms. Li
The judicial interpretation of the Supreme People's Court of my country on the trial of labor dispute cases has long issued relevant regulations: hiring foreigners without employment documents to work, and the court will not support the labor disputes arising from this in my country. And this is precisely used by criminals.
Half an hour observation
small advertisements were posted on the Internet, illegally promoting foreign nannies, and charging tens of thousands of yuan in so-called agency service fees. It is not known how many consumers have these illegal black intermediaries deceived. However, this underground market that operates illegally and makes illegal profits is still challenging the law and harming the interests of consumers.
is not only these undercurrents surging in the market, but also found during an investigation by CCTV Finance's "Economic Half Hour" reporters that some formal housekeeping service companies are now participating in these illegal business activities.They operate legally on the surface, but they ignore laws and regulations behind their backs and carry out this illegal business.
Since consumers hire foreign nannies without legal status, they also have negligence, so there are endless incidents of damaging consumers' rights and even conspiring to defraud consumers.
The chaos in the market is worthy of consumers' attention and needs the attention of management departments. National laws, market order, and consumer rights cannot tolerate carelessness, and even more so challenges!
The market is in chaos, and management needs to be filled!
