SINGAPORE: Close to 240 migrant workers in the process sector have gone without pay for up to two months, with some now receiving assistance for their daily needs, National Trades Union Congress (NTUC) deputy secretary-general Desmond Choo said on Friday (Oct 23).

The workers are affected by alleged salary issues involving Process Maintenance Solutions and Jurong Technical & Construction.

According to Mr Choo, on Oct 19 and Oct 20, representatives from the Migrant Workers' Centre (MWC) and the Ministry of Manpower's (MOM) Assurance, Care and Engagement (ACE) Group met 230 workers to better understand their needs.

MWC and MOM were working together to provide assistance, including daily meals for close to 90 workers, he added.

In a social media post, Mr Choo said almost all the affected workers were sole breadwinners, with the missed salary payments also taking a toll on their families back home. "Payday came and went, but no salary. Then another payday passed," he wrote. "These workers deserve to be paid for their hard work, and we will do what we can to support them." He also urged anyone who knows a migrant worker facing salary issues to encourage them to contact MWC's 24-hour helpline at 6536 2692. "No worker should face this alone," he added. CNA has reached out to MOM for more information.
