In a press statement, NWC noted that in its deliberations on wage recommendations, factors such as Singapore’s economic performance, as well as the domestic and global economic outlook are considered. “At the same time, the NWC takes into account Singapore's economic competitiveness, labour market conditions, inflation, and productivity growth," it added.
