SUBJECT INDEX

600 LETTER OF CONSENT HOLDERS IN SINGAPORE MEET THE CURRENT SALARY CRITERIA FOR EMPLOYMENT PASS
Singapore's Minister for Manpower Dr. Tan See Leng has recently addressed a Parliamentary query on the number of workers with a Letter of Consent employed in jobs with a job scope or salary equivalent to Employment Pass (EP) holders, S Pass holders, and Work Permit holders. For better understanding, since 1 May 2021, Dependant's Pass holders in Singapore have had to obtain a relevant work pass instead of a Letter of Consent (LOC) to work in Singapore. As such, the majority of the LOC holders at present are dependants of Singapore citizens and Permanent Residents who are holding a Long-Term Visit Pass (LTVP) or LTVP-Plus, and working on either an LOC or pre-approved LOC (PLOC).
