14:16 Min

The Workplace Fairness Bill is a significant milestone in promoting fairness and inclusivity in Singapore's employment landscape, said MP Denise Phua in Parliament on Tuesday (Jan 7). Drawing focus to the impact of the Bill on persons with disabilities (PWDs), she put up three proposals for the Bill to broaden the definition of disability, mandate reasonable accommodations and develop a roadmap to legislate reasonable accommodations by 2030. She highlighted that the Bill is a “necessary step forward” in protecting workers against discrimination and that reasonable accommodations must eventually be legislated to make a real difference for PWDs.
