Public consultation by MOM
MOM is currently seeking public feedback on key aspects of the Second Bill, specifically:

Feedback received will be considered by MOM in drafting the Second Bill. For more details, please refer to MOM’s consultation paper which can be accessed here.
Invitation to participate
This consultation presents a valuable opportunity to engage directly with MOM on shaping the future framework for workplace fairness claims. The Second Bill will govern how such claims are processed and resolved going forward.
We are considering submitting feedback to MOM, including views on:
- The proposed expansion of the Employment Claims Tribunal’s jurisdiction to claims up to SGD 250,000
- The proposed restriction on legal representation before the Employment Claims Tribunal

Alternatively please feel free to share your feedback with us and we will consider your feedback in the provision of our feedback to MOM. If you wish to share your feedback with us, please do so by 17 September 2025 (as the consultation will close on 19 September 2025).
Please feel free to reach out if you wish to discuss.
