The new budget aims to increase wages for low-income workers while helping employers manage labor costs. To achieve this, the government will enhance the Progressive Wage Credit Scheme (PWCS) by raising subsidies for wage increases.



In 2025, the government will increase its co-funding for wage increments from 30% to 40%.








In 2026, the subsidy will rise from 15% to 20%.





According to Singapore's 2024 median salary data across different age groups and education levels, the median wage stands at around SGD 5,000.

    根据新的预算案，新加坡政府计划通过提高低收入工人的工资，同时帮助雇主管理劳动力成本。为了实现这一目标，政府将通过提高渐进工资信贷计划（PWCS）的补贴来增加工资。根据新加坡2024年不同年龄组和教育水平的中位数工资数据，中位数工资大约为新币5,000元。

    关于这个工资调整计划，您可以根据自己的情况评估是否受益。如果您是低收入工人，那么提高的工资和政府的补贴将对您有利。如果您是雇主，您可能需要考虑如何管理劳动力成本。

    对于2025年的预算案，最好和最坏的部分因人而异。一些人可能认为增加低收入工人的工资是最好的部分，因为这有助于缩小收入差距和提高生活水平。然而，对于一些雇主来说，增加劳动力成本可能是一个挑战。

    请注意，以上观点仅供参考，具体情况还需根据个人的具体情况来评估。如果您对这个问题有更多的关注或疑问，我可以帮助您查找更多相关信息。
