My employment contract with my employee states that I can provide 1-month notice to terminate employment at any time. Would I still need to notify MOM in this case?

Question

Accepted Answer

Yes, your company must notify MOM if your employee is terminated on the ground of redundancy, or by reason of any reorganisation of the employer's profession, business, trade or work, and has met the mandatory retrenchment notification requirements.

An employer who terminates an employment contract with no plan to fill the vacancy any time soon is presumed to have retrenched the employee.
