Unpaid salaries, no work: Migrant workers in 2 related firms left anxious
MOM is currently investigating both process sector firms, which have 240 affected workers.
Bangladeshi migrant workers at two process sector firms in Singapore are facing severe financial strain due to unpaid salaries. Hossain Midul, a 24-year-old worker, has not received his salary for two months, leaving him anxious about supporting his family back home. His employer cancelled his work permit without explanation, rendering him jobless.
Process Maintenance Solutions and Jurong Technical & Construction, both linked firms, have been accused of failing to pay workers for three months. The workers have been housed together in Tuas dormitories and have been struggling to make ends meet. They are receiving assistance from the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) and the Migrant Workers’ Centre (MWC).
The situation has raised concerns about the future of these workers and the well-being of their families back in Bangladesh.
