Singapore to keep work-from-home as default arrangement


SINGAPORE, June 20 (Xinhua): Singapore's Ministry of Health (MOH) has announced this week that work-from-home will continue to remain the default arrangement for employees, despite the city-state's starting a further reopening to Phase 3 (Heightened Alert) on Monday (May 20).

The ministry said that Singapore must control transmission risks by reducing overall interaction within workplaces, and in public places including public transport, as the country transitions through Phase 3 (Heightened Alert) in the coming weeks.
