LSN Singapore ·
SATS has launched an appeal to staff willing to take on temporary baggage-handling duties, as the airport ground services provider navigates an ongoing investigation by the Ministry of Manpower.
Employees who volunteer for the positions will receive $15 in NTUC vouchers, additional time off, and a transport allowance as compensation for their temporary assignment.
The initiative appears designed to address operational demands while the company cooperates with regulatory authorities. The MOM probe's specific focus has not been detailed in available information.
SATS is a major ground services operator at Changi Airport, handling baggage, aircraft servicing, and related functions for multiple airlines. The company employs thousands of workers across various roles at the airport.
The volunteer scheme reflects efforts by the company to maintain service levels during the investigation period while distributing additional workload among its workforce.
