Singapore National Employers Federation (SNEF), the employers’ group hopes Budget will include wage offsets and funding to defray costs of hiring older workers
- Employers seek wage offsets in the form of Special Employment Credit (SEC) in response to the higher employment costs associated with increasing retirement age, re-employment age, and higher Central Provident Fund (CPF) contribution rates for older workers.
- This is SNEF’s budget wishlist following the report and proposals by the Tripartite Workgroup on Older Workers in August.
