Morning Shot: Can the Workplace Fairness Bill solve less visible discrimination?


Listen Later

Discrimination often happens at the workplace and can take many forms.

To better tackle that, Singapore has recently passed a landmark legislation, with provisions to tackle discriminatory practices in hiring, dismissals and appraisals. The Workplace Fairness Bill is set to strengthen protections for Singaporeans by making fair employment practices not just a ‘good to have’ company policy but a legal requirement.

But can this Bill solve less visible discrimination? And how challenging is it to execute the legislation?

On this episode of Morning Shot, Patrick Tay, Assistant Secretary-General at NTUC shares his insights.
