The Trade Unions (Amendment) Bill 2022 – What to Expect?

Please join AMCHAM on Friday, 14 October at 2:30 pm for a members-only virtual briefing session on the proposed Amendments to the Trade Union Act. Following the second reading of the Trade Unions (Amendment) Bill 2022 earlier this week, this is a good time to catch up with the current status.

We are delighted to have Rubini Murugesan and Sivaram Prasad, partners at Christopher & Lee Ong in the firm’s litigation practice to brief AMCHAM members on notable areas in the amendments.

The amendments to the Trade Unions Act are aimed to be better aligned with International Labor Organization (ILO) standards to create more progressive, healthy, and competitive trade unions, and to ensure that employee benefits can be increased. Here are two key focus areas of the briefing session:

• What do employers need to keep in mind as the amendments come into force and what impact would these amendments have moving forward?
• The possible effects of the multiplicity of trade unions in a single company and adjustments to voting thresholds.
