Starting Salary

PKR 40,000 / month

What Moves the Price

  • Home size: a multi-floor DHA or Bahria Town house is a genuinely fuller workload than a compact apartment
  • Scope: cleaning only versus cleaning plus laundry plus light cooking are three different jobs at three different price points
  • Live-in versus live-out: live-in typically costs less in cash terms given included board and lodging
  • Independence: a maid who runs the household's cleaning schedule unsupervised is worth more than one needing daily direction

What's Included in the Role

  • Room cleaning, dusting and mopping
  • Laundry, ironing and wardrobe upkeep
  • Dishwashing and kitchen support
  • Daily household organisation

Experience Matters More Than Years Alone

Maids with a documented history of long tenures with previous employers, rather than frequent short placements, are a stronger signal of reliability than years of experience alone.

Negotiating a Fair Rate

Confirm scope in writing before agreeing salary. A maid hired for cleaning only should not be expected to also cook or do laundry at the same rate without renegotiating.
