<!-- START OF : div id="storytext"--><!-- more than 4 paragraphs -->THE government initiative to offer grants to organisations to look beyond price when awarding cleaning contracts is to be commended ('Govt boosts cleaning sector', last Thursday). The aim is to boost earnings of cleaners and increase the proportion of Singaporean workers.
In this regard, cleaning companies can do more for their workers. What happened to the 12 per cent Jobs Credit payouts these companies received?
Cleaning companies have fixed contracts with the employing organisation, in which the number of workers is fixed and tied to the contract amount. This being the case, the 12 per cent payouts represent a windfall for these cleaning companies. Perhaps they will agree to share part of the payouts with their workers by declaring special quarterly bonuses.
Many cleaners earn less than $800 a month and every extra dollar in their pocket will help them in these difficult times.

They dont pay salary actually. But they receive job credit cheque from govt ranging from $ 30K to # 45K. Some even are so guilty whether to encash the cheque or not. their auditors advise them to encash first otherwise it will give rise to suspicion in the govt dept.

I thought almost all cleaning companies employ FT, either PRC or Banglas. Then they will not receive any Job Credit payments right?

in principle, jobs credit weakens competitiveness because it lowers productivity with the wage subsidy

but hey, as an employer i get free money from the government so why not?
