Question:
Singapore does not currently have any legislation which expressly prohibits discrimination at the workplace. Instead, all Singapore-based organisations will need to comply with the Tripartite Guidelines on Fair Employment Practices ("Tripartite Guidelines") from the Tripartite Alliance for Fair and Progressive Employment Practices (TAFEP).
a) Demonstrate how the Tripartite Guidelines help regulate discrimination at the workplace. (7m)
b) Illustrate how an employer (in this scenario, a school) can apply the Tripartite Guidelines to a job advertisement for a Mandarin teacher in the school which touts itself to have native-speaking teachers, and to the subsequent dismissal without notice of the teacher employed who has allegedly abused children under her care. Provide relevant examples of an appropriate job advertisement in this scenario and the steps that can be taken by the school to ensure that the dismissal of the teacher is not wrongful. (18m)
