Question:
May Allah reward you. This questioner asks about the ruling on a domestic worker uncovering her face in front of the owner of the house and his children?
Answer:
A foreign woman, a non-mahram woman, is required to observe hijab like any other woman, and it is not permissible for her to uncover her face. Only a slave woman uncovers her face to her master because he owns her. As for the foreign domestic worker who is not a slave, she is a hired worker, meaning she is called a hired worker, not a slave. So, like other women, she is required to observe hijab. Yes.
