The Workplace Fairness Bill has been recently passed in Parliament, marking a major milestone in Singapore's employment landscape.

Aimed at tackling workplace discrimination, the bill protects employees from biases ranging from age, race, nationality, and so on.

But while the bill is a positive step towards fostering a more inclusive community, it also presents challenges for SMEs, which are exempted for the next five years.

On The Big Story, Hongbin Jeong speaks to Paul Lim, Director of Undergraduate Admissions and Senior Lecturer of Organisational Behaviour and Human Resources at the Lee Kong Chian School of Business, Singapore Management University to unpack what this bill means for organisations and employees.
