Practical Guide to the Employment of Professionals, Managers and Executives (PMEs) for Good HR Practices
Practical Guide to the Employment of Professionals, Managers and Executives (PMEs) for Good HR Practices
by Chia Boon Cher & Edmund Baker
PMEs are now given better protection and rights under the amended Employment Act and the Industrial Relations Act. The Ministry of Manpower has introduced a legislative framework to allow PMEs earning up to $4500 per month and who are union members to use the tripartite mediation service for claims on the non-payment of salaries, retrenchment benefits and breach of employment contracts by employers.
Many PMEs may not be aware of their entitlements under these laws. This book is therefore a timely reminder to the employers in general and the PMEs, in particular, of their legal rights and obligations.
Written in an easy-to-read and easy-to-understand “Question-and-Answer” format, readers will find the segment on “Frequently Asked but Unanswered Questions” very informative and helpful. Employers will find the segment on “Recommended Good HR Policies and Practices” an excellent and practical guide.
