TWC2 activity: volunteering
TWC2 took nearly 300 migrant workers from various communities out to Lazarus Island for a day of fun. At the same time, we set aside time to prep them with information as to how to resolve employment-related problems.
Work Permit holders are often summarily terminated. Yet our laws contain clauses about wrongful dismissal. When would a dismissal be wrongful? We had a test case before the Employment Claims Tribunal.
To mark TWC2's twentieth anniversary, we put up a series of seven videos discussing issues still bedevilling the migrant worker space.
A worker comes by TWC2 to say hello. We know him from a decade ago when we were the only help he could find. Life is much better now, but he isn't forgetting.
Migrant worker Khan is back in Singapore, fully recovered from his injuries. He comes by the Cuff Road Project to say hello to old friends. But how was he injured?
A worker comes by our free meals station. Another career wrecked by the unexpected? No, the opposite. He brings good news and joy.
As her two months with us came to an end, we asked an intern to reflect critically on the primary tool she was using to provide information and assistance to workers – the Trengo platform.
Unlike TWC2's WhatsApp number which is regularly advertised, we almost never tell workers the address of the Cuff Road Project, where workers can also come for assistance. So how do they know about it?
What do we do at The Cuff Road Project? We profile three instances where workers came for help in addition to benefitting from our free meals.
