CCM, LRM and HTM students: a minimum monthly take-home allowance of $500.
All other students: a minimum monthly take-home allowance of $450.
Employers are exempted from CPF contribution.
Many employers provide an allowance which is above this minimum amount.
Overtime pay is payable for work beyond 44 hours per week.
Work Permit
Foreign students are exempted from work permit requirements.
Company Supervisor
Students will only receive instruction and guidance directly from their reporting
companies. The company must assign at least a supervisor to oversee the performance
and progress of the student.
Liaison Officer
A lecturer appointed to oversee the students attached to the company, shall serve as the
Liaison Officer. Queries and clarifications can be directed to the Liaison Officer.
Training Programme (including orientation)
Employers are requested to submit a training programme which will be evaluated on its
suitability. The scope of training can cover projects and/or job responsibilities in the
areas listed in the application form. Should the programme be changed, employers are
requested to inform the Liaison Officer as soon as possible.
Student Attendance & Schedule of Work
Students should not be required to work beyond 11pm, where possible. Student
attendance must be recorded daily by the employers. Students are not allowed to take
leave except for compassionate and medical leave which must be approved by both the
Employer and the Polytechnic. The students must provide supporting documents for
leave. If students take more than 3 - 5 days of medical leave (depending on the duration
of their SIP), employers may deduct their pay or extend their SIP to make up for the
medical leave taken.
Insurance
Students are covered under the Polytechnic’s insurance policy.
