class=\"usa-main-title\">Employment-related rules are one of the many legal criteria that businesses in Singapore must meet. When it comes to hiring, supervising, and terminating staff, you have responsibilities as a business owner and employer to abide by Singapore\u2019s Labor laws.\u00a0 Singapore\u2019s principal employment law is the Employment Act. With a few exceptions, it establishes the fundamental terms and conditions of employment for all categories of employees. The Employment of Foreign Manpower Act, which outlines an employer\u2019s obligations and responsibilities for employing foreigners, also applies to foreign employees with a\u00a0work permit.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3ba170d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"3ba170d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The term \u201cemployees\u201d in the Employment Act does not necessarily refer to all categories of employees. It does, however, apply to both local and foreign workers who work full-time, part-time, or on a temporary basis. Employees are covered by the legislation regardless of how they are paid: monthly, daily, hourly, or on a piece rate basis.\u00a0<\/p><p>A few of these labor types are not protected under the employment act:\u00a0<\/p><ul><li aria-level=\"1\">Civil servants employed in Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority (ACRA), Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), and other statutory boards<\/li><li aria-level=\"1\">Domestic workers<\/li><li aria-level=\"1\">Seafarers<\/li><li aria-level=\"1\">Manager and executives who carry out supervisory or decision-making functions<\/li><li aria-level=\"1\">Professionals with tertiary education and specialized skills such as lawyers, accountants, doctors, and others<\/li><li aria-level=\"1\">Independent contractors\u00a0who carry out services on his\/her terms<\/li><\/ul><p>The Employment (Part-Time Employees) Regulations apply to part-time employees who work less than 35 hours per week.<\/p><p>To avoid penalties such as a $5,000 fine, six months in prison, or both, it is best to follow best practices as a business owner. The penalties rise to $10,000, a year in prison, or both for successive violations.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7eade22 elementor-widget elementor-widget-n-accordion\" data-id=\"7eade22\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;default_state&quot;:&quot;expanded&quot;,&quot;max_items_expended&quot;:&quot;one&quot;,&quot;n_accordion_animation_duration&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;ms&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:400,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]}}\" data-widget_type=\"nested-accordion.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-n-accordion\" aria-label=\"Accordion.
