On 16 April 2024, it was announced that the Singapore Government has accepted all 10 recommendations by the Tripartite Workgroup on the Tripartite Guidelines on Flexible Work Arrangement Requests (Guidelines).
The Guidelines, which are mandatory, come into effect on 1 December 2024. They are intended to shape the right norms and expectations concerning flexible work arrangements (FWAs) by delineating the process by which employees submit formal FWA requests and how employers and supervisors should handle such requests.
This update takes a look at the Guidelines.
