就业准证薪金门槛调至4500元
根据人力部声明，从9月1日起，本地就业准证（EP）最低薪金门槛，将从现有的3900元，再调至4500元。
至于S准证薪资门槛，也会从10月1日起，调至2500元。
政府也会调整金融服务领域就业准证新申请者的薪金门槛，至5千元。
年长、富经验申请者，则需符合更高最低薪金标准。若明年准证持有者更新准证，也需符合上述薪金标准。
此外，即使是申请S准证的雇主，10月1日起也许遵守公平考量框架！他们同样要到全国职库刊登招聘广告。刊登招聘广告的时间也将从目前的14天延长到28天。
人力部长杨莉明也呼吁，雇主应为本地人提供公平就业机会，并强调企业应努力建立和保留新加坡人核心。
