Surprised

Omigod, they've legalised the screwing of employees? Shocked

the Bear SG

you didn't know?

it's always been legal... just that no one used it...

just like in the US, it's legal for the gabrament there to declare a state of emergency, seize all private property, forcibly conscript the men into service, move the rest into things like concentration camps..

it's in the law but no one seems to know about it...

sbst275 SG

I suspect everywhere there is

Just like ppl said only SG and MY has ISA, I dun even think so

Rhonda SG

Shocked Shocked That law comes as a shock!! Shocked Shocked It's like giving employers the go-ahead to fleece employees and make them work OT for nothing!! Shocked Shocked

elindra SG

I think no company has ever enforced it because no one will want to work for them, plus socially, it gives them a bad name in the market and people might actually enforce a boycott on their product Laughing

Hi hi Rhonda~

btw, i've been working unpaid OT all these years...

sometimes, the sense of responsibility is more a liability than an asset Laughing

sbst275 SG

Laughing

InnoHippo SG

FTs are willing to work for such employers. That's why the "NO WELCOME" sign is always displayed Laughing

elindra SG

Laughing
Bear are you considered an executive by the company?
If so, OT is said to be part of your work and your responsibility andyou are not protected by the employment act
I mean it is under the company's discretion to give you time off or over-time pay
Sad case isn't it?

av98m SG

It's a given that we have to do unpaid OT Laughing

The people that can be hurt by this piece of legislation are the lower income hourly rated workers, or anyone making less than 1.6k I guess.

the Bear SG

my job title = senior < blah blah > executive

which is a lot of hogwash because before the merger, there was no "senior" bit... now it sounds scary but we're still paid the same to do a crapload more..

as for the "lower paid".. since when the idiots in ivory towers care except to win brownie points?

InnoHippo SG

doing unpaid OT willingly is not the same as being forced into it Wink

the Bear SG

do you see tentacle porn around here?

no right? that's coz we're not japanese... no one here does OT willingly Laughing
