<strong>DyStar</strong> signs Employers Pledge for Fair Employment Practices<br />

<strong>DyStar</strong> signed <strong>the</strong> Employers’ Pledge with <strong>the</strong> Tripartite Alliance<br />

for Fair Employment Practices (TAFEP) in Singapore in <strong>2011.</strong><br />

TAFEP’s shared vision is for Singapore to be one of <strong>the</strong> best places in<br />

<strong>the</strong> world to work; a place where every worker is given an equal<br />

opportunity for employment, rewarded according to his or her<br />

merit, treated fairly and with respect, and given <strong>the</strong> opportunity<br />

to optimize his or her unique talents; a place where businesses<br />

are able to attract, develop and retain valued employees, and<br />

create a harmonious and inclusive work environment, where<br />

employees are highly motivated and contribute to <strong>the</strong>ir fullest to<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir organizations and <strong>the</strong> economy.<br />

With a view to achieving this vision, <strong>the</strong> tripartite partners – <strong>the</strong><br />

Singapore National Employers Federation, Singapore Business<br />

Federation, <strong>the</strong> National Trades Union Congress and <strong>the</strong> Ministry<br />

of Manpower - have unanimously endorsed <strong>the</strong> 5 key principles of<br />

fair employment practices for implementation:<br />

• Recruit and select employees on <strong>the</strong> basis of merit, such as<br />

skills, experience and ability, regardless of age, race, gender,<br />

religion or family status.<br />

• Treat employees fairly and with respect and implement<br />

progressive human resource management systems.<br />

• Provide employees with equal opportunities for training and<br />

development based on <strong>the</strong>ir strengths and needs, to help<br />

<strong>the</strong>m achieve <strong>the</strong>ir full potential.<br />

• Reward employees fairly based on <strong>the</strong>ir ability, performance,<br />

contribution and experience.<br />

• Abide by labor laws and adopt Tripartite Guidelines which<br />

promote fair employment practices.<br />
