How do you think the Workers’ Party has performed so far? /u/Former_Limit4396 Singapore

​r/singapore The Workers’ Party (WP) has consistently advocated for various policies through its manifestos and in Parliament. While some of these ideas were initially dismissed, they have eventually influenced Singapore’s policymaking. Some examples I can think of: WP called for more paternal leave and shared parental leave. Starting April 1, 2025, government-paid paternity leave will increase to four weeks, and eligible parents will also receive six weeks of shared parental leave. WP advocated for flexible working arrangements. In April 2024, the Tripartite Guidelines on Flexible Work Arrangement Requests (TG-FWAR) were introduced, taking effect on December 1, 2024. WP proposed a minimum wage to uplift low-income workers. While a full minimum wage has not been introduced, the Progressive Wage Model (PWM) was expanded across various industries, reflecting WP’s push for fairer wages. Given the a small number of MPs elected into parliament, the Workers’ Party’s has achieved quite a lot. Yet, their influence is significantly limited. They can only provide alternative views and ensuring the PAP does not become overly complacent. Do you think the WP has performed well this term despite these constraints? Which of their proposed policies do you feel has made the greatest impact? submitted by /u/Former_Limit4396 [link] [comments]
