Payroll in Singapore.

With its central location in Southeast Asia and its status as a financial and commercial hub, Singapore is a great place to expand your company. The World Bank named Singapore the second easiest country in the world in which to do business. However, it’s critical to understand the country’s various employment laws, taxation rules, and how to stay compliant when setting up payroll.

Hiring in SgSingapore.

The Employment Act 1968 (Employment Act) is Singapore’s primary employment legislation that prescribes the basic terms and working conditions for all types of employees (including part-time, contract, and temporary employees). The Employment Act applies to both Singaporeans and international workers in Singapore.

Companies must make sure that they are staying compliant to avoid a fine or losing talented candidates. This includes following Singapore staffing and recruiting regulations to find the right candidates for open positions.

Compensation & Benefits in Singapore.

Once you recruit the perfect candidate, a well-crafted compensation and benefits plan can help seal the deal. Singapore’s compensation and benefits laws impact all workers, and you can also offer additional benefits that are not required but are common practice.

With the right recruiting strategy, you can take advantage of extensive industry expertise from the broad pool of independent contractors available in the country.
