劳资纠纷?据网民分享照片,四名客工站在联明建筑公司某建筑工地,手上拿着“我要工钱”标语,疑向该公司追讨工资。

有关消息也在社交媒体和Whatsapp疯传,另一视频则显示上述四名客工,站在一群工友前,手持标语。

此事引来民众为工友抱不平,也纷纷想了解工友抗议的建筑工地地点。网民Ah Seng感叹,通常可以帮助捍卫客工权益的资源有限,可能最终结果只能领回基薪并被遣返,但往往涉及压榨员工者不会被严厉对付。

他认为在国际上新加坡雇主对待客工的声誉很差,过去的案例就有不发工资、诈欺或者透过招工代理征收大笔中介费。此次个案或许只是冰山一角。

有网民称,联明曾负责承建许多政府工程。联明是本地一家上市建筑公司,若浏览该公司官网,可发现他曾承负责建许多建屋发展局、裕廊集团和陆路交通机构的公共住宅和基础设施工程项目,当前承建的工程包括建屋发展局在淡滨尼的149户组屋。

本社针对此流传视频,联系联明公司核实详情是否属实,目前仍待该公司回覆。
