    MORE help for retrenched workers is on the way.

    From January next year, employers must notify the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) of retrenchments within five working days. This affects all companies with at least 10 employees where five or more employees are retrenched within any six-month period, Manpower Minister Lim Swee Say said on Friday.
