Full-time Resident Employees Who Received Only Seven Days of Paid Annual Leave in First Year of Employment

Mr Louis Ng Kok Kwang asked the Minister for Manpower what is the breakdown by industries of the number of full-time resident employees aged 25 to 64 who in their first year of employment received only seven days of paid annual leave.

As mentioned in our earlier reply to a related Parliamentary Question read on 14 October 2024, out of the 228,900 full-time resident employees aged 25 to 64 who were in their first year of employment in 2023, 18,800 employees or 8.2% received only seven days of paid annual leave. [Please refer to "Full-time Resident Employees Aged 25 to 64 Receiving Only Seven Days Paid Annual Leave in First Year of Employment", Official Report, 14 October 2024, Vol 95, Issue 142, Written Answers to Questions section.]

Detailed estimates broken down by industry are not available.
