Police say they are 'firmly against workplace discrimination’, after ex-officer claims appraisal dropped due to pregnancy

SINGAPORE — The police on Wednesday stressed that they take a firm stance against workplace discrimination practices and do not penalise pregnant officers, after an ex-officer and mother of four young children alleged that she was told her performance grade dropped because of her pregnancy.

This was in response to a Facebook post on Tuesday by Ms Reema Razif, who said that she was in service for 11 years and have “no regrets” in her chosen career where she gave her “100 per cent”. The police however said that she was not asked to work while she was on paid maternity leave and that during her four pregnancies between 2016 and 2021, she was given light duty assignments that were primarily desk-bound.

In her post on Tuesday, Ms Reema attached a black and white photo of herself in maternity uniform in front of a police vehicle which went viral in April 2020 after she posted a colour version of it then on Facebook. She added then that the police work insanely long and irregular hours while adhering to new unprecedented regulations in view of the initial Covid-19 outbreak and subsequent circuit breaker period.

Still, what's the answer about this case? A statement without answering the real question.
