Debated in Parliament on 9 May 2023.
Mr Louis Ng Kok Kwang asked the Minister for Manpower for each year in the past two years, how many companies have adopted the Tripartite Standard on Work-Life Harmony.
As a new Tripartite Standard launched in April 2021, the number of companies that adopted the Tripartite Standard on Work-Life Harmony (TS-WLH) has increased from 500 at the end of 2021, to 1,200 at the end of 2022, covering about 317,000 employees. Employers that adopt TS-WLH would be better able to distinguish themselves as part of their talent attraction and retention strategies and we hope more employers would adopt TS-WLH in time to come.
