    【新加坡】财政部长 Lawrence Wong 在周四（2月12日）的预算案声明中宣布，全职员工的本地员工薪金门槛 (LQS) 将从今年7月1日起，从之前的1600新元上调至1800新元。

    本地员工薪金门槛为聘用外籍员工的公司规定了须支付给本地员工的最低薪金。

    为了聘用工作准证、S准证或就业准证持有人等外籍员工，公司必须向所涵盖行业和职业的本地员工支付符合渐进式薪金模式 (PWM) 的工资，并向所有未被该模式覆盖的本地员工支付不低于本地员工薪金门槛的薪水。

    这意味着，聘用外籍员工的公司必须向全职本地员工支付每月至少1800新元的薪水，才能满足聘用外籍员工的要求。兼职本地员工的时薪则必须至少为10.50新元。

    外籍员工配额将相应进行调整。

    每名月薪不低于1800新元的本地员工将被计为一名本地员工人力；月薪介于900新元至1800新元（不含1800新元）的员工将被计为半名本地员工人力。月薪低于900新元的本地员工则不计入公司的配额资格。

    本地员工薪金门槛上一次上调是在2024年，当时从1400新元调高至1600新元。

    为帮助雇主抵消部分成本，政府将加强渐进式加薪补贴计划 (PWCS)。2026年的共同补贴比率将从20%上调至30%。

    渐进式加薪补贴计划曾在2025年预算案中得到加强，当时2025年的补贴比率从30%提高到40%；2026年的补贴比率则从15%提高到20%。

    该计划也将延长两年至2028年。从2027年起，政府将把获得渐进式加薪补贴计划支持所需的最低加薪额度从目前的100新元提高到200新元。

    PM Wong 表示：“这将更好地鼓励和奖励那些投资于员工的公司。”

    他指出，这些旨在提升低薪工友的措施建立在渐进式薪金模式的基础上，该模式将薪金增长与技能、生产力和职业发展挂钩。他补充说，政府将继续加强渐进式薪金模式下的培训支持。

    他回顾了去年在就业技能计划下为参加长期培训课程的员工提供的额外支持，同时宣布将加强该计划的基础级别，并提高提升技能的员工的每小时津贴。
