- All companies in Singapore -- including small and medium businesses -- must have a clear process for flexible work arrangement requests from this December. This is the latest move by the tripartite workgroup consisting of government, unions and employer groups. Upon receiving requests, employers must give a written decision within two months. If the request is rejected, a relevant reason must be given. While the guidelines are mandatory, employers will not face legal action if they reject an employee's request.

tok is cheap...leaving companies to handle fairness?
The go ahead is oredi given by the Gov.U still wants ppl to hold yr hand.LOL
Agree
Low salaries with long working hours,no meals allowance,no transport allowance,but only work,work and more extra work,how to be happy?
Get another job. No point complaining
@CattleFarmer667 ：No way,already sold away my 5 rm ,retired at changmai for 2 yrs already, I enjoyed my life now,you work hard!
@@daigogo5967haha work work work to pay extra extra taxes to the govt 😂😂
They need to start by implementing this in the gov sector. Let all MoE, MoH, MinDef, HomeTeam, SCDF etc get 4 days work week then it will spill over to private sector.
no 4 day work week..cannot unable too..5 days is just nice really
Er government agencies are already in hybrid/ flexible working for office at least. Front line will be moving forward flexible schedules for family or child needs. Now U all asking for 4 day work. Mind as well don't work?
Why force all teachers to report just for mari kita when they can get more sleep and then work better? Teachers still working after pupils go home.

Gan Siow Huang is not a businesswoman but a parachuter into the Parliament from her SAF background. How is she qualified to make decisions for businesses?
Well the people voted her in
Its true Gan Siow Huang is voted by the people. Those who lost Sengkang GRC also can be NTUC chief. Regardless of whether the people voted or not is no longer an issue. It is who they liked to sit on the chair.
Gan Siow Huang is from SAF & use the PAP brand name to be voted in. She just says it to please the public & current government without thinking. She is a loyal follower without brains.
There is no intention to help workers. If she got an intention she should make it mandatory for pte & public sectors to adopt 16 days annual leave & 4 days elderly leave. MOM keeps extending the retirement age to 68 yrs old. Its aging population but leave is not added.
Gan SH, NTUC Chief & MOM minister Tan SL are just giving coffee shop talk. The current lot of PAP ministers are just followers. Implement policy without thinking such as traffic offences are fined $150 while forget to bring bowls & utensils back are fined $300. Complete joke. Speechless to comment.
About work hours ruling to exist if by owner of company will be nicer, the common sense. Anyway about job, a safety shoe is a 100% injury but the belief let be to keep it up.
If due to the life block imagination about McDonald's, if a delivery corner can exist(customer just pay delivery fee) as an order point?
Excellent! Another great accomplishment by the PAP govt once again. What a remarkable PAP!❤❤
@anziar. Nohting but PAP wow, wow, wow from this fella.
Don't give credit where it's not due. The Unions and Louis Chua pushed for the idea.
You are easy to please.

Eh, no response ah???Let's see who want to become Boss for these 2-4yrs... We will bring in Europe Workfare also.... Make sure all life time medical FREE....
Louis Chua (Sengkang GRC) outlined the benefits of Flexible Work Arrangements (FWA) such as work from home or hybrid schedules for employees, noting that studies have shown that many Singaporean workers have expressed their preference for such arrangements
So as a Janitor I can work from Home?
@@robocop581 how about flexible shift or work load?
@@SkyLee91 Sure. Tell that to nurses and Ambulance staff that are already in short supply
Work frm home esp in an environment with children is killing the family unit.
Maybe people should watch the full video and get a better understanding of this new guideline before commenting
Maybe you can get us the link for the full vid
most CECA had been working from home for many years, local worker work like hell

Yeh, in singapore workers are kings and queens!!!🎉🎉🎉😊😊😊ha...,we=workers will make sure bosses go bankruptcy....
Good one😅
Husband work 6 days a week for 30 years. Now 61years old already. Very difficult to take annual leave. How to spend time with family and go oversea trip.
Workers in Singapore have said that they would prefer FWAs, with one recent study showing that Singapore jobseekers are still looking to work from home, even though employers may be feeling otherwise.
MoE hq, Chan Chun Sing,
Why make all teachers wake up report just for mari kita when they can get sleep and then work better? Teachers are still working after pupils go home or do
Cart work home to do
Let Teachers Come later.
Have a few on duty just to do mari kita
Bus, taxi and mrt driver want to drive bus from home 😂😅😂😊

Sporean must be wise
Not to push to far
Now is not easy to do
Business in spore
Expensive
Especially forigner firm
The can relocated their
Hq to kl or indonesia

How about those working at construction site? Different ‘forms’ of workstyle or still the same? Seems pointless. Better look into the minimum salary requirement for PR & SC. Up till date there is no minimum salary for PR/SC, only required for WP, SP, EP. So is it ok for PR & SC salary lower than work pass holders?
Must have a process to for flexible work arrangement request. A process, not must give everyone FWA.
Those construction workers of course can't WFH. But generally these are fw working such jobs not Singaporeans. But the supervisors and specialists don't necessary need to work at the construction site everyday. Because they also have paperwork to handle, meetings to attend.
I think this is a first step, later they can push for jobs that can be eligible for WFH to be made into fwa. The full time caretaker then has more reason to rejoin the workforce, while blue-collar workers who cannot WFH, salary will rise even more because more workers would prefer to have jobs with fwa, meaning harder for employers to hire such workers. If blue collar jobs salary go up, I think it will then again benefit white collar jobs in the exec to mid manager level as if those jobs are too stressful or not valued right, those workers would rather switch to working blue collar jobs.
I’ve been asking my boss to allow me to work at my home overseas and just come to sg on as needed basis, since we’re hybrid and barely see each other anyway, but she won’t allow. Maybe with this guidelines, my request will finally be granted. 🤞
It will be
For employers just change contract of service to contract for service … won’t even need to pay cpf save another 17%
For employees , just officially write in to your company and if company doesn’t allow then go mom at Bendemeer
So this law create more jobs opportunities (to settle disputes)
Lol!
Louis Chua has consistently called on the Government “to give employees the legislative right to FWAs rather than non-legally binding advisories, and for the Government to lead by example.”
Glad that sg not into Right to Disconnect
Well, still looks like no change to 44hr work week. First world country but still 3rd world work life
0:20
I wish work 1week 4day😊😊
Have need? Workers before dunno how to go to their boss to tell them that i would like lesser working hours and dun mind a pay reduction? Or i would like to do work at home and have lesser pay?
This time round, the worker can ask government to step in if the company rejects without valid reason.
@@HenryHoe the only fairness to the worker is competition. Competition different governments tax and also the living conditions in the country. The competition between companies so if the job offer is bad another company can offer a better deal for the worker. The very simple answer for the company to reject the worker. I can’t even survive how can i afford to hire you.
The past few years have shown that FWAs are “transformational” for workers, said Mr Louis Chua, which is why it’s an issue he’s embraced since he started in Parliament in 2020
This will appeal to some voters in coming elections for sure😂
No tragedy, crisis or ministerial boo-boo can be a wake-up call to the government - only one thing can!
Thank you for your news .👍🤵📱👀
if approved, i vote pap
Exactly. That’s the purpose of this news. Getting votes.
Gan Siow Huang warned that such arrangements may end up not working for everyone.
Another USELESS PAPER LAW! Just for show only. Mostly business as usual. If Local request being rejected and employees not agreeing? Immediately replaced by 90% of the foreigners who agrees for low paid poor productivism.
So its setting the rules but don't have to follow the rules. 😂 Very Gahmen
Another pointless law 😂
Not pointless. Some people with rather get lower pay to FWA. Imagine Malaysian with PR FWA in JB. Small business may can get cheaper worker this way. Need to be smart.
@@CattleFarmer667
Why should flexible work arrangements lead to lower pay when the amount of output are the same?!?
Another pointless comment, just like my comment also
@@Callsign-Blade_RunnerSG 2 ways to see this. 1) If a worker only work 3 days a week then monthly pay is lower. 2) If a worker works from home (at JB) everyday and the worker accept lower wage to avoid commute.
Lower wage for a worker does not mean low satisfaction.
Good news for problematic workers.😂
Singapore employers and foreign employees.
Let our regular army/police guys work from home lah.. 😅
They'll be able to do so soon.
