Abstract

SMU Assistant Professor of Law Eugene Tan discussed the implications of the SMRT strike incident and whether tripartism has lost its relevance. Assistant Prof Tan highlighted that there are deep, systemic issues within SMRT, and that the reach of the triapartism is not enough. He also highlighted the need to stamp out discrimination, and said that employers need to review their mindsets towards workers, especially foreign ones, and act ethically, equitably and responsibly given the default imbalance of power in the workplace.
