Is it mandatory for domestic helpers to sign a written contract?

I have just arrived in Saigon 2 months ago and applied for a job as a domestic helper for a family that takes care of children. The family agrees and I have been working for 3 weeks now, but they haven't signed a contract with me. I am concerned about my rights being affected. Therefore, I want to know if it is mandatory to sign a written contract for domestic helpers?

Pursuant to Clause 1a, Clause 3a Article 29 of Decree 28/2020/ND-CP stipulates as follows:

- Warning penalties for employers who commit one of the following acts:

+ Not signing a written labor contract with household help.

- Measures to remedy the consequences

+ Employers are required to sign a written labor contract with household help when violating point a, Clause 1 of this Article.

Thus, the act of not signing a written contract with household help is against the law and will result in a warning penalty and the employer is required to sign a written contract for the household help.

Respectfully!
