Guidelines versus advisories
Tripartite guidelines supplement law and MOM may act on non-compliance; advisories describe progressive practices for adoption. This complete linked directory separates legislation, good practice, wages, industrial relations and contingency planning. Historical COVID-19 and 2021–22 wage material is retained with its dated context.
Topics covered
Legislative guidance covers older-worker re-employment, executive limited/collective representation, mandatory retrenchment notification and wrongful dismissal. Good-practice guidance covers fair hiring, flexible-work requests and NWC wages. Advisories include harassment, sourcing and PWM contract renegotiation, fixed-term employees, banking human capital, outsourced rest areas, mental well-being and industrial relations. Contingency resources cover continuity planning, historical pandemic guidance for six outsourced sectors, haze and responsible retrenchment.
