Murika has law to make sure the package is 1month per yearmany middle-agers and boomers in sillycon valley can’t wait to get their severance packages in company-wide layoffs. after working for 30 years severance can mean full pay without work for 6 to 9 months plus health and insurance benefits. best is vesting all stock options and cashing out at 6 to 9 times when shares were issued since 30 years ago. easily at 50 a sillycon valley tech worker can amass at least us$6.9m in total gross value. after tax it’s around us$3.69m. in sg at 50 you die your biz.
2 weeks per year is the norm with a cap at 30 to 40 weeks. for some sexecutives severance can be up to a year or 52 weeks. for some ceo’s can get 69 weeks and $69m in bonus and stock.Murika has law to make sure the package is 1month per year
Dr Tan See Leng used to lay off older employees at Parkway annually when he was CEO even though the company was doing extremely well. How can a company that operates Mount Elizabeth Orchard, Mount Elizabeth Novena, Gleneagles and Parkway East Hospitals be in a position that it needs to do regular retrenchments in order to survive?there is still a good deal of hirings but the remuneration packages are 1/3 lower for the same job scope. Even healthy Singapore companies that are currently making tonnes of profits are “restructuring” - trying to replace higher-cost employees with cheaper new hires.
In S'pore, most employers will only hand out a severance pay equivalent to the affected staff's notice period.many middle-agers and boomers in sillycon valley can’t wait to get their severance packages in company-wide layoffs. after working for 30 years severance can mean full pay without work for 6 to 9 months plus health and insurance benefits. best is vesting all stock options and cashing out at 6 to 9 times when shares were issued since 30 years ago. easily at 50 a sillycon valley tech worker can amass at least us$6.9m in total gross value. after tax it’s around us$3.69m. in sg at 50 you die your biz.
Based on feedback from my former colleagues who were retrenched, SkillsFuture only prepared them for a future of underemployment or continued unemployment.he is very lucky few who can help government do advertisements, majority of the leetrenched take all these skills paper qualifications oso cannot secure a full time job ... sounds too good to be true? its most likely so .....![]()
at least 6.9 days better than you die your biz.In S'pore, most employers will only hand out a severance pay equivalent to the affected staff's notice period.
The Govt will claim that PMEs who get retrenched fall under their radar, so receive no assistance. The truth is that our leaders do not care.at least 6.9 days better than you die your biz.
There are many CECAs paying an arm and a leg in rental at my condo development. Their numbers are growing and their behaviour becoming more belligerent at the common areas like the swimming pool, gym, tennis courts, BBQ pits, study room etc.leetrenchment is ok if the leetrenchist is replaced by true blue sinkie but that is not the usual case
BS lah... US is the worst. Work 30 years they can ask you pack up and leave in one hour with 0 benefits.Murika has law to make sure the package is 1month per year
