TAFEP Fair Employment Practices: Who Qualifies and What You Get
Understand how to report workplace discrimination and learn the difference between systemic issues and individual grievances in Singapore.
This initiative provides essential guidance and a dedicated reporting channel to help ensure that employment practices remain fair and free from discrimination in the workplace.
Who it's for
This scheme is designed to protect and support all employees. Regardless of your specific job role or industry, if you are working in the workforce, these guidelines are meant to apply to your professional environment.
What you get
The primary benefit of this scheme is the provision of a formal reporting channel for workplace discrimination. It serves as a mechanism to highlight unfair treatment and ensures there is a structured way to bring issues of bias or inequity to light. By providing these guidelines, the initiative aims to promote progressive employment practices across different sectors.
What it costs you
There is no financial cost to using this service. It is a free resource provided to help ensure that the workplace remains an equitable environment for everyone.
The catch to know
It is very important to understand the specific scope of this service before you reach out. This body is primarily focused on addressing systemic issues—meaning problems that affect how a company operates or how it treats groups of people. If you are dealing with an individual grievance, such as a personal dispute with a manager or a specific disagreement regarding your own employment contract, your case may be better suited for TADM. Knowing whether your issue is a personal matter or a broader company-wide practice will help you get the right kind of help.
How to apply
- Assess your situation to determine if it is a personal dispute or a broader, systemic issue regarding discrimination.
- Review the fair employment guidelines available on the official website to see if your concern aligns with their scope.
- If your concern is a systemic issue, use the official portal to submit your report.
