What is Retirement and Re-employment Act (Singapore)?
Singapore legislation that prohibits employers from dismissing employees on grounds of age before the minimum retirement age of 63, and requires employers to offer re-employment to eligible employees up to the re-employment age of 68, with both ages set to increase to 65 and 70 respectively by 2030.
Why it matters in hiring
Retirement and Re-employment Act (Singapore) comes up whenever teams compare candidates, set policy or report on people data. Getting the definition right keeps decisions consistent, which is the same reason springhire scores every applicant against the same criteria rather than on impression.
