SINGAPORE - The National Trades Union Congress is proposing a Fair Retrenchment Framework to help protect workers' rights and ensure fair treatment for workers who are affected by retrenchments.
The framework would complement the existing tripartite advisory and guidelines on managing excess manpower and responsible retrenchment, it said. Companies may also consider keeping foreigners with special or critical skills for the continuity of the business, as they are intended to augment Singaporeans in the workforce, the statement added.
They should also get on board the NTUC Job Security Council to provide necessary support to workers who may be or are affected by the retrenchments, and help them seek new employment and training for skills required for new jobs.
