Termination and retrenchment must be carried out in accordance with the terms of the employment contract, as well as the relevant legislation (which is mainly the Employment Act) and case law. Additionally, the Ministry of Manpower (“MOM”) and Tripartite Alliance for Dispute Management provide various guidelines on responsible termination and retrenchment, which employers are expected to adhere to.

Workplace Compliance
Workplace compliance refers to an employer’s obligation to comply with the established employment laws in Singapore. The main purpose of employment law is to protect individuals during their course of employment, such that their rights are respected, their skills are not unfairly exploited, and they are incentivised to contribute and innovate at the workplace.
