What if company does not pay employee's CPF?

last SG · 2006-05-22T22:24:01+00:00

Some employer can don't declare employee's existance. Then don't have to pay cpf for them......

ditzy SG

Correction, MOM won't even bother to check. Laughing

dragg SG

why did you agree in the first place?

you got a better take home pay?

dragg SG

provided your company has no auditing.

crispylips SG

maybe i can pay the audit coffee money too? Twisted Evil

dragg SG

then it becomes very complicated.

it is not easy to cover all base.

but of course there are plenty of shrewd businessmen out there who know how to plug the loopholes.

Cool But IRAS will make the rest pay higher tax isn't it?

dragg SG

tax rate is fixed.

from my basic econ knowledge, i guess the business is now what they call 'underground economy'. So exempted from tax and stuff. its like every morning lorry pick up foreign workers for a days work. only that they got a longer period and higher pay. no liability at all, unless someone dies during work.

just an e.g how world class our CPF board are.....

long long time ago.. i was doing a contract job.. then i already told my temp agency i will have go reservist few week after my contract start... they told mi no problem... but when it really happened... they realised as it's an contract work.. the company i am attached to will only pay the number of day i work for...actually... no problem right? as the other few days will be pay by SAF right....

the catch is.... SAF will not pay the employer part of the CPF.. and the other company wont too.. coz i am actually the staff of that temp agency... so they actually told mi.. they will deduct from my pay.. that mean.. i will pay the total or 33% that time i think is 37% lor.. so i KPKB with them....and demand to talk to the boss and complain to SAF about it.... lucky in the end they lan lan pay for mi.. i tihnk the commission of that staff tio cut lor.....

but the high light is this story is that...... when i try to call CPF board to ask and complain.. they actually told mi it's not their problem how we settle it... as long as they receive to FULL 37% or 33%.. they dun care if in my contract the agency write a clause to force to pay for the employer CPF ... as long as i agree they DUN CARE.... knn.. fcuk up Evil or Very Mad

No...When i enquired more.They told me its just company policy, beneficial to us employees.

dragg SG

how can it be beneficial to you unless you are given a better take home pay?

frankly it depends on what is written in your letter of appointment.

if there is no wrongdoing on your part approach the cpf board.

ha8n SG

Dun think the company can /try to run away

as MOM will know ....

then the HR manager will b implicated

SpecOps87 SG

How bout the above?Thanks

king108 SG

Embarassed I am very much confused..forgive me because I pay high tax..so don't know how to play with low tax.

I read my IRAS assessment

It stated
Employment - XXXXX
Dividends - XXXXX
Total Income - XXXXX

Less: Personal Relief -Earned Income, NS/wife/parent / Provident Fund / Life Assurance

Chargeable income - First 40,000 paid 1000.00, after $40,000 9%
Tax assessed - XXXXXX
Less:Tax deducted from Dividend/Interest

No matter what, if you pay 5 of them the paid, they still needed to pay income tax. The other 5 can avoid paying but declared unemployed?

Chargeable offence right?

i dun think they will even b bother to check unless u complain. or better still employed all FTs n no cpf Laughing

king108 SG

Cool Cannot say until like that..you meant the department head no working..cannot be lah. Cool

dragg SG

any contract of payment? if not, by law they should pay you within 7 days after you left the company.
