Police probe interior design firm Axion Design after complaints over stalled renovations, missing furniture

Singaporean police and government agencies are probing interior design firm Axion Design following complaints of stalled renovations, missing furniture, unpaid salaries, and defaulting on Central Provident Fund (CPF) contributions. Some affected customers are owed tens of thousands of dollars, while others had to live in homes with unfinished renovation works after messages to the firm went unanswered.

Former employees have also lodged complaints over non-payment of salaries, and the firm has defaulted on CPF contributions. Five employees have since agreed on payment schedules with the company, and the CPF Board has initiated prosecution against the firm, while the Ministry of Manpower is also investigating the company for possible breaches of the Employment Act.
