  2. If eligible, prepare specific grievance and supporting documents without publicizing worker identity

  3. Choose SLBFE head office, regional branch, diplomatic mission labour section, hotline 1989 or official online complaint route

  4. If worker is not SLBFE registered, official page points toward MFA consular division; check alternative lawful channels and emergency protection

  5. Request and retain any official acknowledgment, and follow the actual agency case updates separately from aiyo status
