The Truth Of The Matter As It Applies To » Employment Law Annual Leave
Secondment from UK to Singapore office?
My company is seconding me to their Singapore office for 2 years but my contract and pay will still remain under the UK company. Does this mean I fall under UK employment law or Singapore's employment law? For eg. can I claim the minimum UK statutaory entitlement for annual leave (20 days)? Appreciate any type of help!
If you aren't comfortable with your HR departments answers, I would say you need to contact a Company Secretarial Firm in Singapore.
As a rule of thumb I would say, if you are subject to Singapore Income Tax you would be governed by Singapore law inclusive of Workman's Comp.
Hourly employees are normally governed more strictly and follow union rules. Salaried positions only have the benefits of their individual contract.
With the current rental situation in Singapore I hope your company is providing accommodation.
Hope this helps.
Good Luck
