About Us –
Agensi Pekerjaan Y.S.L Sdn. Bhd
(Est. 1994)
For 31 years, YSL Maid Agency has been one of Penang’s most trusted, legally licensed, and family-run maid agencies—connecting Malaysian households with reliable Indonesian and Filipino domestic helpers. Founded in 1994 and backed by JTKSM License JTKSM-380B, our agency has successfully placed more than 40,000+ maids with families across the Northern Region, making us one of the most established and experienced maid agencies in Malaysia.
We remain a Penang-based, family-operated Maid Agency, guided by the same values that shaped our very beginning: honesty, care, and unwavering responsibility to both employers and maids.
Our Story: A Family Legacy Built on Trust & Responsibility
YSL Maid Agency began as a small family business in Penang, founded by Madam Yeap Siew Leng—an early pioneer in Malaysia’s domestic helper industry. Her belief was simple: a maid agency must never operate as a “transactional business.” Instead, it must prioritize the well-being of the maid and the long-term harmony of the household.

This philosophy is still the foundation of YSL today. Over the decades, the YSL family continued this legacy by building deep, legally compliant partnerships with authorized recruitment centers in Indonesia and the Philippines.
These partnerships are backed by government-regulated Job Orders (JO) under the Malaysia–Indonesia and Malaysia–Philippines Memorandums of Understanding. This ensures every maid supplied through us is recruited ethically, screened legally, and protected from exploitation.
This long-term commitment to legal and ethical recruitment is what has shaped YSL Maid Agency into Penang’s leading and most trusted Maid Agency.
Our Mission as a Maid Agency in Malaysia
Our mission is to ensure every Malaysian family has access to reliable, well-trained, and legally compliant domestic helpers who can support childcare, elderly care, and household needs. At the same time, we create meaningful job opportunities for Indonesian and Filipino women seeking to improve their quality of life.We believe a maid agency holds the responsibility not just to place a maid, but to support both sides throughout the entire employment journey.
Why We Are Penang’s Leading Maid Agency

32 Years of Industry Expertise
Our long history allows us to anticipate problems before they occur, making us one of the most reliable maid agencies in the region.
With more than three decades of operating strictly under Malaysian law, YSL Maid Agency brings unmatched depth of experience. Having served over 40,000+ households, we understand the challenges families face—especially mismatched maids, runaways, communication gaps, and unrealistic expectations set by irresponsible agents.

Legal, Ethical & Government-Compliant Recruitment
Many “cheap” or unlicensed agents bypass these requirements. This puts employers at legal risk and maids at risk of exploitation. Our agency is built on the principle that legal compliance protects everyone—employers, maids, and families.
In an industry often clouded by illegal practices, YSL Maid Agency stands out for our strict compliance with:
- Ministry of Human Resources (JTKSM) regulations
- Malaysia–Indonesia MOU
- Malaysia–Philippines MOU
- Mandatory Job Order (JO) documentation
- Immigration requirements
- FOMEMA medical screening
- Visa With Reference (VDR) process
Real Success Cases from YSL Maid Agency

Long-term Elderly Care Placements
Many of our elderly care maids have stayed with the same families for 8–12 years, offering stable and compassionate support.

Multi-Generation Repeat Customers
We have numerous cases where:
- parents hired maids from us in the 1990s
- their children grew up with these maids
- now, as adults, the same children return to YSL to hire maids for their own families
This is the strongest testament to our reliability.

Counselling That Prevented Runaways
Because our maids know they can return to our agency for help, they choose to communicate with us rather than run away.
Most disputes are resolved through simple dialogue and mediation.Our 6-Month Replacement Warranty
Every maid placement comes with a standard 6-month replacement warranty for incompatibility.
During this period, employers may request replacement if:
- maid runaways
- cultural adaptation fails
- job scope mismatch occurs
- personality incompatibility arises
- the maid is unable to adjust despite counselling
This guarantee reflects our confidence in our matching system and training process.
