Haze guidelines and advisory for work >>

Ministry of Manpower (MOM) reiterates no national shut-down of workplaces 

During this period, employers should not compromise on the health and safety of their employees as they continue functioning. This is especially so for those involved in outdoor work.

Risk mitigating measures should be adopted to make work less strenuous, for example with the use of mechanical aids. Employers can also rotate jobs, schedule more rest breaks for employees performing outdoor work.

In addition, visibility factors should be taken into account to ensure that safety of employees is not compromised. For example, risk assessments should be conducted for outdoor lifting activities.
