You can't possibly rely on those Sg/My Drivers to OT each day to cover up for the slot. LTA can fine them, and yes it can make a company bankrupt~ But I don't even think LTA would does that~ 1 reason simple, who will take over SMRT company?

a lot of split shift drivers and those drivers who were on leave/not rostered for duty/standby ran the slots for a maximum of 12 hours. free OT for them lor

if you look at the benefits tied to their salary, its reasonable. at least SMRT gave them a shelter over their heads. better than renting a 3 room flat at about $500 - $1000 each month, and having to make their own way to the depot, be it by public transport or having a motor/taking cab right?
gues not only they english cannot, maths also fail -
Pay is not supposed to be divulged in the first place.
-
problme is the root cause is these PRCshit are greddy people. a chance to cum here work they earn better than back in their country already. thos estronger ones can survive in their country. thsoe that cum out are either weak, or damn greedyo ones.
-
what about no bonus??? you can say the diff is to pay for lodging etc... bonus this one..
-
its all stated in their contract. they not happy they can don;t sign. the problem is greed led them to use comparison 'unequalit' as the dried twig to start a fire.
-
if everyone were to say contract, then I guess we really missed the point over moral and rationality...

OH PLEASE TELL THAT TO MY COMPANY.

Times are bad when even foreign workers are complaining about the salary.

It will be interesting to see how the management diffuse the problem.
On the one hand, the government does not want to see a "strike" in Singapore for fear of losing the investors' confidence and the government will apply the pressure on SMRT.
On the other hand, the management cannot afford to sack all these drivers and the management cannot give in to their demand.
So, how to resolve the problem ?
It could be that the chairman will reprimand the management in a public statement by saying that the management has not been sensitive to the feeling of these drivers and SMRT will give them the same pay rise as the Malaysian workers based on equality and fairness and at the same time the chairman will warn these drivers that it is illegal to strike in Singapore without approval from MOM with at least two week notice in advance and this episode will be taken as an exception and any further strike will be dealt severely according to the laws

So there are a few things to note:
The SMRT employers are trying to be slave owners, and this is what happened when they go too far.
These Chinese workers think they are still living in a commie paradise, where any group of workers can gang up on their employers with demands.
Government companies have been hiring foreing trash because they can be paid less. Well, this is what you get! Pay peanuts some more la. -

can take option B.
cut the snake head firts, then slowly the reminder body to tail in phases. time enough to effect a containment action.

Yes, they can get new drivers from China or other countries to replace them but not immediately.
It take time to train the new drivers too.
