Committee of Supply 2025 debate, Day 6: Yeo Wan Ling on Tripartite Guidelines on Flexible Work Arrangement Requests

In parliament on Friday (Mar 7), MP Yeo Wan Ling asked the Ministry of Manpower for an update on the Tripartite Guidelines on Flexible Work Arrangement Requests (TGFWAR) and whether the ministry can consider measuring its impact on women returning to work, given that employers and employees are not required to report outcomes. She also wanted to know what the ministry can do to support more flexible work opportunities to open employment options for more underserved segments of women, such as pregnant mothers, in a bid to promote more inclusive workspaces.
