For new tenders called from 1 March 2023 and quotations from 1 March 2024, the Government will require awarded suppliers and their subcontractors to be accredited with the PW Mark for the contract period, if they are eligible for it.

Suppliers and their subcontractors who do not hire any workers covered by Sectoral PWs or Occupational PWs are ineligible for the PW Mark. Hence, they are not required to be accredited.

We encourage potential suppliers who hire at least one local worker covered by Sectoral PWs or Occupational PWs to apply for and obtain the PW Mark in advance to be in good stead to fulfil the government procurement terms.
