13 September 2007

The Ministry of Manpower will require employers to purchase and maintain insurance for the medical expenses of foreign workers from 1 January 2008. This requirement is being implemented in tandem with the withdrawal of healthcare subsidies for foreigners , which was previously announced by the Ministry of Health. The requirement will apply to:

*
All new and existing foreign workers on Work Permit or S Pass from 1 January 2008.
*
All new foreign domestic workers, and existing foreign domestic workers when employers renew their Work Permits, from 1 January 2008.

Medical Insurance Requirement

2. The coverage must be at least $5,000 a year for each worker's inpatient care and day surgery during his/her stay in Singapore. The coverage amount is set at a basic level, and will be sufficient to cover nine out of every ten hospital bills for foreign workers, based on statistics from the Ministry of Health.
