Singapore company registration specialist, Rikvin, has released the Overview of the Singapore Employment Act, a concise guide to drafting a Singapore employment contract. Rikvins guide aims to give Singapore employees and employers a quick snapshot of the essential features of a Singapore employment contract (Contract of Service).

Rikvin is confident that the guide will help employees and employers quickly grasp and understand their rights and duties under an employment contract. This understanding would in turn enable both parties to negotiate fair and mutually-beneficial grounds for employment based on the Singapore employment act, Singapore’s fundamental labor law.

The Overview includes 1) a brief explanation of the Singapore Employment Act as well as the parties it covers, 2) a brief explanation of what an employment contract is and what it should essentially constitute as well as 3) other important factors relating to an employment contract.

Rikvins guide also lays out eight salient features of an employment contract namely 1) the designation title and job scope, 2) employees commencement date and employment period, 3) hours of work, 4) probation conditions, 5) remuneration package, 6) employee benefits, 7) code of conduct and conditions for termination.

Commenting on the Overview, Mr. Satish Bakhda, Head of Rikvins Operations, said, We have observed that many young entrepreneurs engaging our Singapore company registration services would like to draft fair Singapore employment contracts but do not know how to do so. Rikvins Overview of the Singapore Employment Act is a one-stop checklist that gives owners of small enterprises the most important components to draft fair employment contracts. On the other hand, the same guide provides an employee with a concise reference point with which he can check against the terms of his employment contract.

Furthermore, the Overview is aligned with the recommendations laid out by the Tripartite Alliance for Fair Employment Practices. Drafting a fair employment contract is the first step to establishing a respectful working relationship with an employee, regardless of the type of Singapore work visa he is holding. A fair employment contract is also one of the first documents shared between an employer and a potential employee. As the contract is an extension of the company brand, it is then of utmost importance to begin the relationship on the right foot, even if it does not come to fruition.

(PRWEB UK) 26 October 2011

The inaugural information day aimed to inform and inspire people who either attend or run existing tinnitus support groups. The day also aimed to encourage others to form a group if one currently does not exist in their area. It was supported by the Big Lottery Fund and was attended by more than 40 people who travelled from as far afield as Northern Ireland, including group members, sensory support workers and audiologists.

The BTAs work with support groups is part of its Talking Tinnitus campaign which aims to encourage people to talk about their tinnitus experience and to seek help from others who are also affected, for mutual benefit. Many find that attending a tinnitus group can be an invaluable source of help and support. They can often be a lifeline to some, especially when members of their family or friends are unable to relate to their experience of tinnitus.

The event included three workshops. Tony Kay, who runs Aintree Tinntius Support Group and is an audiologist at Aintree University Hospital, discussed how to start a group; effective advertising and how to recruit new members. David Stockdale, BTA CEO, informed the attendees how to involve local medical professionals and source group speakers. Members of the Birmingham & District Tinnitus Group also spoke about Governance and how to implement an effective committee.

Other speakers included Helen Goldsby-West, a fundraiser for the BTA; Zoe Hiljemark of Marketing Matters, the BTAs integrated marketing agency; Chris Fry, a solicitor at Unity Law; Don Ferran, a consultant Otolaryngologist and John Phillips a consultant ENT surgeon. Issues covered included fundraising within a group, maximising local PR opportunities, plus legal and medical issues.

The event also included one-to-one sessions, networking games and lunch was provided.

David Stockdale, CEO of the BTA, said: Feedback has been really positive. We have given delegates relevant information and tips on how to boost membership and how to maximise the potential of the groups, and we hope that the event will lead to many more groups being opened throughout the country to help more people who experience tinnitus. Wed like to thank the Big Lottery Fund, as without them this day could not have taken place.

Comments from delegates included: A really good mix of people and all the speakers were approachable, An excellent first event, good speakers and good facilities, and A good effort, well worth repeating.

A full list of existing tinnitus support groups can be found at http://www.tinnitus.org.uk/directory. For more details about the BTA please visit http://www.tinnitus.org.uk or call 0114 250 9933. For information on the Big Lottery Fund please visit http://www.biglotteryfund.org.uk

About Tinnitus

Not an illness or disease, tinnitus is a term that describes the sensation of hearing a noise in the absence of an external sound. The noise can have virtually any quality. Ringing, whistling, and buzzing are common, but more complex sounds may also be reported. Troublesome tinnitus can be very distressing for the affected individual, and issues may arise with sleep, concentration and mood. However, in many cases, subtle changes in peoples environment can address these issues, and improve quality of life.

Find More Recruitment Agencies Birmingham Press Releases

(PRWEB UK) 9 December 2011

Demand for temporary workers is rising, leading to a busy period for recruitment agencies, according to the latest figures from the Recruitment and Employment Confederation (REC).

The research, carried out among 400 recruitment agencies, found a drop in permanent job vacancies but an increase in jobs for temporary or contract staff.

In other positive news, the amount billed by recruitment agencies for temporary staff and contractors was also up in November for the 28th month in a row.

The REC and KPMG Report on Jobs found that fees are up for both permanent staff and temps, although only marginally.

Bernard Brown, Partner and Head of Business Services at KPMG, said that it was hoped that the Governments recent stimulus package, which includes measures aimed at removing barriers to the recruitment process and business growth, would boost jobs and see the statistics in the survey improve over the coming months.

Brown commented, Bright spots in an otherwise gloomy data set were that the agencies surveyed reported rising demand in permanent placements for engineering and construction staff ahead of this time last year, and demand also rose for IT and computing staff, together with the executive/professional and secretarial/clerical categories.

Geoff Newman, chief executive of online recruitment agency RecruitmentGenius.com was particularly surprised by these findings given recent legislation.

The recent agency workers regulation has made long-term temporary workers largely unaffordable and we are aware this has negatively impacted on temps. When the legislation is taken into consideration these results are even better than expected. Historically an increase in temporary workers has also been a good indication an economy is entering a recovery phase. I really hope this is the case.

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) January 21, 2012

Enfluence Group, the award-winning entertainment PR & Brand Marketing agency known for having the strategic approach of seasoned brand marketers and the influential network of traditional Hollywood publicists, launches its new MyENFLUENCEsm program of hourly and bundled services for arts-related and cause-oriented brands, it was announced today by Ron W. Roecker, Enfluence Group Founder & Chief Brand Navigator. MyENFLUENCE services include PR, brand marketing, social media, entertainment marketing, media relations, sponsorship development and activation, crisis communications prep, and professional development training.

For brands to be successful communicators in a Social/Technological Revolution thats characterized by a relentless firing squad of information, they must have outside-the-box creative thinking, smart and malleable Communications strategies, and relevant and flexible tactics in play at all times, said Roecker. In todays economy we know there are so many arts- and cause-oriented organizations that cant afford the standard agency monthly retainer so they end up having to manage their brands and missions on their own. MyENFLUENCE allows these organizations to tap into our vast experience and influential network on an hourly or bundled-resources basis whenever they need our expertise the most.

When the components of MyENFLUENCE were being evaluated, Enfluence Group looked at employee retention trends as well and found two consistent messages 1) employee relations experts across the board agreed that one of the most important things employers had to do in order to retain good people currently was provide professional development training and 2) one of the first budget line items that was taken out when organizations had to tighten their belts was professional development training. So MyENFLUENCE will offer professional development training sessions, based on interest and need, in group settings where individuals from various organizations can sign up to go through the training together at a more cost-effective group rate.

With MyENFLUENCE, if we can help these organizations thrive from a communications standpoint and help them retain their strongest talent, added Roecker. While creating a different revenue model for our company then its a total win/win for everyone involved. We look forward to a successful 2012 for all.
