Hi Everyone,

we are planning to change our helper in next 1-2 weeks. My concern is who ever i talk, they say, they decreased their helpers salary since the USD/TL rate increased so much.

What is the current range of salary for a english speaking house helper? Or do you accept fixing your salary to Turkish Liras.

Thanks

about 100 usd per day

no, $ 100 is extremely high.
on the other hand, salary paid for month is always lower than daily one. daily wage per day is about ₺ 150-200 for temporary jobs.
for a permanent job it should be around ₺ 2,000-3,000 monthly in accordance with whether it is stay-in or stay-out.
₺ = TL (turkish lira)
