Taking Care of Union Members and Our Families

The NTUC understands the difficulties facing our workers, in particular the lower-income members. Over the years, with the support of the Singapore Labour Foundation (SLF) and the NTUC cooperatives, the NTUC unions have helped the lower-income and needy members through their many programmes.

In 2004 and the first half of 2005, the NTUC contributed more than $6.7 million in the form of NTUC FairPrice vouchers, NTUC Club Family Recreation FUNd vouchers, transport vouchers, etc. for members. The NTUC also assists needy members through hardship grants.

The NTUC knows the importance of providing our next generation with opportunities for good education. Union members’ children benefited through union scholarships, bursaries and book grants.

In the coming years, the NTUC and its unions are committed to do more for union members, in particular the lower-income members and the needy members.
