Employment has been an area of especial focus in Singapore even before her independence, given its extensive impact on the general population. Various employment legislation enacted since the founding of Singapore sought to deal with pertinent issues of the time, be it the influx of immigrants in the 19th century, the industrial unrests in the 1950s, or the economic restructuring in the 1980s. Employment Law in Singapore – Cases and Materials consolidates and traces the development of the various legislation which regulate employment practices in Singapore (including the Employment Act, the Employment of Foreign Manpower Act, the Employment Agencies Act, the Work Injury Compensation Act, the Workplace Safety and Health Act and the Foreign Employee Dormitories Act 2015) which as a whole seeks to strike a delicate balance between the competing needs of the various stakeholders such as workers, employers, employment agencies, insurers, and the general public. Cases featured in this book include not only those pertaining to employment offences, but also administrative infringements and work injury compensation. It will serve as a useful handbook to practitioners and persons interested in the regulatory aspect of employment law in Singapore.

The digital economy is an integral part of our daily lives. We spend a significant amount of our time on social media services, e-commerce marketplaces and other online apps and platforms, but how much do we know about the policies and regulations that keep us safe and businesses honest? Additionally, the ubiquity of data-driven technologies, such as online search services, digital advertising and artificial intelligence, has prompted the need for regulations to safeguard consumer interests and expectations of privacy. As data is also an asset and important input for innovation and competitiveness, business-to-business tensions over access to and use of data are starting to froth.

SSG funding available. See the 'Fees and Subsidies' table below for more details.
Date & Time: 15-16 May 2025 (15 May: 9.30pm - 5.30pm)
(16 May: 9.30pm - 6.30pm)
Venue: SAL, Stamford 1 & 2, The Adelphi #08-08, 1 Coleman Street (S179803)The course covers contentious issues that regularly occur in building construction projects and disputes: payments and variations; time and delays and termination. It also covers other practical aspects of the built industry such as construction programmes. Each session covers the legal principles and developments pertaining to these issues with a tutorial thereafter. Participants can also expect to be guided on the practical aspects of the construction dispute process: cause papers, witness selection and conferencing, use of experts, Scotts Schedule, written submissions and preparing document bundles.
The workshop takes place over two days:
DAY 1
Module 1: Construction Lawyer’s Toolkit
This session deals with the matters commonly encountered in construction arbitration, adjudication and litigation: the preparation required and expected of construction lawyers, selection of arbitrators, use and selection of expert witnesses, preparation of Scott Schedules, documents available for discovery, witness conferencing and the preparation of bundles of documents. Participants can also look forward to hearing from Mr Adrian Kong, Managing Director of Ankura, on delay analysis and delay experts.Module 2: Payments and Variations
The session covers both the theoretical and practical aspects of claim preparation for payment and variation claims. These would include pointers on preparation of claims in accordance with the requirements of the contract, providing the necessary substantiation for valuation and how factual and expert evidence on such claims can be led or produced in adjudication and other hearings.DAY 2
Module 3: Time and Delays and Construction Programmes
Everyone construction project will specify a date for construction of the works i.e. the contract completion date. However, delays on construction projects are inevitable. All standard form construction contracts contain provisions to address this scenario and allocate the risk between the owner and the contractor. This session covers legal concepts unique to construction projects, namely, concepts such as extensions of time, acts of prevention and time at large. It also discusses the consequences of the contractor being late in completing the works and the remedies available to the employer, namely, the right to impose liquidated damages for each day of delay.This session will also cover construction programmes, the information that goes into one and how they might be designed and incorporated into a contract document.
Module 4: Post-Completion and Termination
This session examines the requirements to achieve completion of the construction works and the consequential obligations imposed on the Contractor post-completion.It will cover termination under building contracts: the rights available to both the Employer and the Contractor to terminate the contract, the concept of the termination of the employment of the contractor, the usual disputes which arise following termination, the procedure to be complied with to effect a valid termination under the Contract and general law and the effect of both a valid and invalid termination on the rights and obligations of the Parties. There will also be a discussion on the provisions relating to termination under the various forms of building contract in use in Singapore.
