May 1 is Labour Day.

5月1日劳动节。

Labour Day marks the solidarity amongst workers.

劳动节标志着工人之间的团结。

Labour Day as a public holiday began only in 1960 after the PAP came into power.

劳动节成为公共假期是在 1960年,当人民行动党上台执政后才开始的。

Before then, only workers defined as labour under the Labour Ordinance (1955) and those defined as industrial clerks under the Clerks Employment Ordinance (1957) were given paid holidays.

在此之前,只有那些工人在劳动条例(1955年)及文员雇佣条例(1957年)分别被定义为劳工与工业文员者才给予有薪假期。


The National Trades Union Congress (NTUC) is the sole national trade union centre in Singapore.

新加坡职工总会( NTUC )是新加坡唯一的全国性工会中心。

NTUC represents over 500,000 workers across more than 80 unions, associations and related organisations.

职总代表50多万工人包括80多个工会,协会和相关组织。

NTUC along with the Singapore National Employers Federation (SNEF) and Ministry of Manpower (MOM), together as a tripartite help tackle labour-related issues.

职总与新加坡全国雇主联合会( SNEF )和人力部(MOM)一起为共同的三方协助解决与劳动相关的问题。

Singapore’s tripartism model offers competitive advantage for the country by promoting economic competitiveness, harmonious labour-management relations and the overall progress of the nation.

新加坡的劳资政三方模式通过促进经济竞争力,和谐的劳资关系以及为国家全面进步提供了竞争优势。

The tripartite was set up to strive for better working conditions for employees and to maintain harmonious employment relations through the implementation of specific policies governing labour relations.

劳资政三方的成立是为了替员工争取更好的工作条件与维持和谐的雇佣关系,并通过实行特定政策以管理劳动关系。

This tripartism mode can be considered as a major feature of the Singapore labour force.

这劳资政模式可视为新加坡劳动力的一大特色。

It is uniquely Singapore.

也只有新加坡独有。
