Singapore’s Ministry of Manpower (MOM) has released the updated Tripartite Advisory on Managing Excess Manpower and Responsible Retrenchment, which was agreed to by the tripartite partners (MOM, the National Trades Union Congress and the Singapore National Employers Federation). The advisory includes three annexes covering cost-saving employment measures to preserve jobs; a checklist of responsible retrenchment practices; and prior notification to impacted employees and the payment of a retrenchment benefit. Tripartite advisories outline progressive workplace practices for employers to adopt.
