Organisation

Transient Workers Count Too (TWC2) is a non-profit organisation registered under the Societies Act (Registration file number ROS 0117/2004 WEL, registration date: August 12, 2004). We are also a Registered Charity (Charity registration number 01971) under the National Council of Social Service (NCSS) and the Internal Revenue Authority of Singapore (IRAS). Our UEN number is T04SS0088C.

TWC2 is headed by an Executive Committee elected biennially at Annual General Meetings, all members of whom are unpaid volunteers. The committee is assisted by an Audit Committee, elected (also biennially) at AGMs in the years between election of the Exco. See the People page for names of office-bearers. There are a few paid staffers based at a small office, and many more volunteers contributing time and expertise.

Following its inception, Transient Workers Count Too has continued to actively engage government officials, migrant workers, employment agencies, partner organizations, and the general public. TWC2 has since grown into a reliable help agency for migrant workers who encounter problems with their employers, a source of information for employers and the public, a centre for generating action-oriented research and a credible advocate for a more enlightened regulatory framework.
