At the moment, it is difficult to move the relationship between platform companies and associations of platform workers beyond an informal dialogue, said a tripartite workgroup.
SINGAPORE: When discussions between a platform company and an association for platform workers reach a stalemate, there is little that can be done to push for a resolution. That is because associations do not have a legal mandate to represent platform workers.
At a dialogue with 120 platform workers, Dr Koh Poh Koon, adviser of the tripartite workgroup, said many workers want to have a voice for themselves and to"negotiate on a balanced relationship" with companies. NTUC secretary-general Ng Chee Meng said the acceptance of the recommendations is a significant milestone.We seek to work closely with our partners and platform workers, to champion them in the areas of better wages, welfare and work prospects," he said.A platform worker representative body will be able to obtain a mandate through direct recognition from the platform company or through a secret ballot after it has been registered with the government.
The representative body must gain majority support from those who vote, and at least 20 per cent of eligible workers must cast their votes for the poll to be valid. For unions representing employees, matters under the management’s prerogative are generally not negotiated unless employers exercise their discretion improperly.Negotiations between platform worker representative bodies and platform companies will be guided by four principles. First, that parties are committed to the success of platform companies and the welfare of platform workers, second, that companies should be able to explain policies that affect workers so they can make informed decisions.
Unresolved collective disputes should also be surfaced to MOM for conciliation, and to the Industrial Arbitration Court if conciliation fails. A similar process could be used to resolve individual grievances.
