The Singapore National Employers Federation (SNEF), Singapore Business Federation (SBF) and National Trades Union Congress (NTUC) have jointly issued a Code of Responsible Employment Practices. In the Code, the SNEF, SBF and NTUC recognise that Singapore workforce is multi-racial, multi-cultural and multi-religious thus both employers and employees can work together to achieve workplace harmony.
The Code is based on the key principle that staff should be treated fairly and employers should continue to recruit based on skills, merit, experience, capability and relevant job requirements. It encourages self-regulation on the part of employers and employees in areas of employment including recruitment, selection, appraisal, job upgrading, posting and training, as well as terms and conditions of employment.
The Code is available at these websites:
