Through the #EveryWorkerMatters Conversations, Lead Administrative Executive Nur Atiqah Ismail hopes to highlight the challenges faced by lower-wage workers in the facility management sector.
During this period, companies with serious lapses or deaths will be banned from hiring foreign manpower; Chief executives are to be held accountable to MOM.
Workers to benefit from progressive wages include lower-wage workers in companies that hire foreigners and in-house cleaners, security officers and landscape workers.
The workgroup will propose a framework that seeks to empower platform workers’ interests and provide transparent negotiation processes for dispute management.
Changes include the introduction of a new work pass for elite talent, special exemptions pegged to top 10 per cent of Employment Pass holders, and adjustments to the Fair Consideration Framework (FCF) and the Complementarity Assessment Framework (COMPASS).
