Should Singapore implement a Universal minimum wage of $1300 as suggested by Pritam Singh?
Yesterday, WP leader Pritam Singh brought up the issue of implementing a Universal minimum wage (UMW) of $1300 in Singapore instead of having the current Progressive Wage Model (PWM). This has created somewhat of a hoo-ha in Singapore, with many Singaporeans surprisingly, offering differing views to his suggestion. What is Universal Minimum Wage? UMW is the basic wage that all employees MUST pay employees if it is implemented. It does not matter which industry or what job the worker does, ALL lower wage workers MUST at least be paid this amount if not more. Do take note that WP’s suggestion of $1300 is the “take-home pay”, which means that the amount before deducting CPF is $1625. (Yes, means boss must pay each worker at least $1625) Then what about Progressive Wage Model? PWM is like a “ladder”, that is currently introduced in three sectors – cleaning, security and landscape.
