no CPF??
Consider these scenarios:
1. Have you ever came across a company where they insist you on doing part-time & not converting to a permanent worker though you have already worked for them for more than half a century? They claimed its for your own good because the procedure of conversion is complicated. But i guess its because they wanted to save on the benefits such as medical aids.
2. Have you ever came across a company where they keep hiring ppl from M'sia & not from Singapore? U might think its because of the idea of "cheap labour". But actually there's more than tt. Read on.
3. Have you ever came across a company where there are no OT pay when you worked after 7pm? From what i know, there are ppl who worked till 4am in the morning to rush out the goods that are to be delivered later in the morning. They worked so hard so as to accomplished the promise tt you had made to others in delivering the goods & there you are, not awarding or compensating for the hrs & hardwork they put in.
4. Lastly, have you ever came across a company where you need not/had not contribute to CPF when you had worked there for more than half a century? And if you want to contribute to your own CPF, sure. Jus tt the company will not contribute to it.
Now you know why they so desperately want to employ only ppl from M'sia? Because these permanent workers are "cheap labour" as there isnt a need to pay them OT wages. Most imptly, there isnt a need to contribute to CPF.
Darn & they could still get away from all these.
Tt was where my mum is working now.
