Fragomen and Herbert Smith Freehills Kramer Prolegis Alliance are delighted to invite you to an informative seminar focusing on Mobility & Employment: A Practical Approach to Managing Foreign Employees in Singapore and Beyond.
Join Mark Buchanan, Charles Johanes and Fatim Jumabhoy as we discuss the evolving landscape of global mobility amidst increasingly stringent immigration laws and greater scrutiny from manpower regulators.
The seminar will provide practical guidance on the rules governing the hiring of foreign employees in Singapore, and across the APAC region, with a focus on:
- Singapore Work Pass types, and considerations for your workforce and mobility strategy
- Navigating enhanced labour market testing requirements under Fair Consideration Framework and COMPASS in order to transfer and retain foreign talent in Singapore
- Recent updates on immigration options in key jurisdictions across the region
- Alternatives to traditional employment models, including nomadic visas and other options to employ overseas, and associated compliance considerations
- Crucial dos and don’ts for business travellers
This seminar is specifically designed to help HR professionals, compliance leads, in-house counsel and business leaders manage their workforce and labour requirements effectively in today’s dynamic regulatory environment.
There will be time to network before and after the session.
