Frequently asked questions

Who counts as a part-time employee in Singapore?

Anyone under a contract of service who works less than 35 hours a week. Part-timers are covered by the Employment Act, except domestic workers and seamen.

How does MOM work out a part-timer's hourly rate?

For a monthly-rated part-timer, 12 x monthly basic pay / (52 x hours worked in a week). The daily rate is 12 x monthly basic pay / (52 x days you must work in a week).

How much annual leave does a part-timer get?

After 3 months of service, your weekly hours over a similar full-timer's, times the full-timer's leave days, times 8 hours. At 20 hours a week in year 1, that is 25.5 hours.

Do part-timers get paid sick leave?

Yes, after 3 months of service, pro-rated the same way. At 20 hours a week, MOM's example gives 50.9 hours of outpatient sick leave and 218.2 hours of hospitalisation leave, which includes the sick leave.

Are part-timers paid for public holidays?

Yes, pro-rated by hours. A part-timer on 22 hours a week gets 44 hours a year for the 11 public holidays, or 4 hours each.

When does a part-timer get overtime pay?

Hours past your normal day are paid at your basic hourly rate until you reach a similar full-timer's normal hours. Hours beyond that are paid at 1.5 times your hourly basic rate.

Do part-timers get a rest day?

Yes, 1 rest day a week if you are required to work at least 5 days a week. Working on it at your employer's request pays 1 day's salary for up to half a normal day and 2 days' salary for more.

Can my part-time leave be paid out as cash instead?

MOM allows leave and holiday pay to be added to your hourly rate if you agree, except that annual leave cannot be paid out this way if you work 5 or more days a week and 30 to 34 hours.
