Can I agree to my platform worker’s request not to be paid CPF contributions so that he can get higher take-home pay?

Question

Accepted Answer

You should not agree to your platform worker’s request not to be paid CPF contributions so that he can get higher take-home pay. Failure to pay CPF contributions to a platform worker (i.e. Singapore Citizen or Singapore Permanent Resident who is providing ride-hail or delivery services under a platform work agreement) is an offence under the CPF Act.
