Employer of Record FAQs in Singapore
What is an Employer of Record in Singapore?
An Employer of Record (EOR) in Singapore is a third-party organization that serves as the legal employer for your Singapore workforce. Asanify handles all employment obligations including contracts, payroll processing, CPF contributions, statutory compliance, and Ministry of Manpower filings, while you maintain full operational control over your employees’ daily work and performance.
How quickly can I hire employees in Singapore through Asanify?
You can onboard Singapore employees within 2-4 business days through Asanify’s EOR service. This includes preparing Employment Act-compliant contracts, completing all necessary registrations, and establishing payroll—much faster than the several weeks required to incorporate a Singapore entity and obtain necessary business licenses.
What is CPF and how does it work?
The Central Provident Fund (CPF) is Singapore’s mandatory social security savings scheme for citizens and permanent residents. Both employers and employees contribute to CPF, with combined rates up to 37% of gross salary. Contributions are allocated to healthcare, housing, and retirement accounts. Asanify handles all CPF calculations, contributions, and filings with CPF Board on your behalf.
Can Asanify help with Employment Pass applications?
Yes, Asanify assists with Employment Pass (EP) and S Pass applications for foreign employees. As the legal employer, we can sponsor work passes and guide you through Ministry of Manpower requirements, including minimum salary thresholds, educational qualifications, and Fair Consideration Framework compliance for hiring foreign talent.
What are the employment costs in Singapore?
Employment costs in Singapore include gross salary, CPF contributions (up to 17% for employers when applicable), Skills Development Levy (SGD 5 per month for Singaporeans/PRs under 55, SGD 2 over 55), and Foreign Worker Levy if applicable (SGD 300-950+ per month depending on sector and tier). Asanify provides transparent cost breakdowns with no hidden fees.
What are mandatory employee benefits in Singapore?
Mandatory benefits in Singapore include annual leave (minimum 7 days, increasing with tenure), sick leave (14 days outpatient, 60 days hospitalization per year after 3 months employment), public holidays, and maternity/paternity leave. CPF contributions serve as the primary retirement and healthcare benefit for citizens and permanent residents. Asanify manages all statutory benefits compliance.
How does payroll work in Singapore?
Singapore payroll operates on a monthly cycle with most employees paid by the 7th of the following month. Asanify processes payroll in Singapore Dollars, calculates CPF contributions, handles income tax withholding, manages Skills Development Levy, and ensures timely salary disbursement and all regulatory filings with CPF Board and IRAS.
What are notice period requirements in Singapore?
Notice periods in Singapore depend on the employment contract and length of service. For employees covered by the Employment Act, minimum notice is typically one day for service under 26 weeks, one week for 26 weeks to 2 years, two weeks for 2-5 years, and four weeks for 5+ years. Asanify ensures all terminations comply with Employment Act requirements and contractual obligations.
Does using an EOR create permanent establishment risk in Singapore?
When properly structured, using an EOR minimizes permanent establishment (PE) risk. Asanify acts as the legal employer and manages all employment functions, reducing your company’s direct presence in Singapore. However, PE risk can arise from other business activities. We recommend consulting tax advisors to assess your specific situation and operational footprint.
