PAP advocacy body calls for law to raise rehiring age

Singapore

THE PAP Seniors Group, an advocacy body of the ruling People's Action Party (PAP), wants the government to take a tougher stand in pushing the rehiring age for older workers to 67.

It has submitted a paper to the Ministry of Manpower (MOM), urging it to quickly introduce a law to raise the rehiring age - currently between 62 and 65.
