买了机票回不了国 又一客工闹跳楼

本月22日，在榜鹅S11客工宿舍传出有客工闹跳楼事件，不料时隔两日（24日），再有类似事件。 据本地社交媒体《新加坡眼》的短片，可见一名客工站在宿舍走廊外的围栏，而身穿保安制服的男子和其他工友，都在劝客工下来。 从谈话中，似乎当事者也同样买了机票，但雇主不让他离开，其他客工则急忙劝说，应打给雇主。较后警察到场，也在劝客工下来，也表示将帮忙找客工的雇主谈谈。 警方较后证实，在今早10点46分接获报案，一名40岁的男子在精神健康法令下被捕。 本月22日，榜鹅S11客工宿舍也发生闹跳楼事件，人力部在隔日解释，有客工买了机票，但雇主不愿协助他返国二情绪激动，但协调后客工已在昨日回国。 人力部曾劝谕，客工若有劳资纠纷应避免让自己危害自身性命安全，鼓励客工拨打客工中心热线 6536 2692，或向人力部反馈。
