Progressive Wage Model (PWM)
The Progressive Wage Model (PWM) is a Singapore government initiative that ensures fair wages for lower-wage workers through structured wage ladders tied to skills and job roles. It promotes upskilling, career progression, and is mandatory for certain sectors and government-linked contracts.
Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA)
The Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA) 2012 is Singapore’s data protection law that governs the collection, use, and disclosure of personal data by organizations. It aims to safeguard individuals’ personal information while enabling businesses to use data for legitimate and reasonable purposes. The Act sets out key obligations for organizations, such as obtaining consent, ensuring proper security, and being transparent in how personal data is managed.
Flexible Work Arrangements (FWA)
Flexible Work Arrangements (FWAs) in Singapore allow employees to adjust their work hours, location, or schedules to better support work-life balance. With the Tripartite Guidelines on Flexible Work Arrangement Requests taking effect from 1 December 2024, employers are now expected to properly consider formal FWA requests and respond fairly, while retaining the right to reject them based on business needs. These guidelines promote a supportive and inclusive work environment, replacing the earlier Tripartite Standard.
