Employers get a guide on spelling out employment terms in writing

Singapore

GUIDELINES were unveiled on Tuesday to help employers, especially those in small and medium firms, to be ready for the day when it's compulsory to spell out employment terms in writing to workers.

The Tripartite Guidelines On The Issuance Of Key Employment Terms (KETs), drawn up by the government, employers and unions, "aim to prepare businesses to progressively change their HR practices before they are required by law to issue KETs in writing".
