The "WorkRight" initiative is a national employment rights protection campaign which aims to uplift low-wage Singaporeans by ensuring good employment standards and retirement adequacy.

To achieve these outcomes, the "WorkRight" initiative raises workers' awareness of their employment rights, ensures employers fulfill their obligations under Singapore's employment laws, and targets improving compliance levels in low-wage sectors (retail, food and beverage, cleaning and security services).

Beyond public education via TV commercials, advertisements at bus-interchanges and newspapers, as well as the inaugural series of 1cWorkRight 1d roadshows in the heartlands, the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) and the Central Provident Fund (CPF) Board have also stepped up joint inspections to 5,000 per year. To date, over 12,000 inspections have been conducted to check employers' compliance with employment laws. These efforts have helped about 50,000 Singaporeans (over half of them in the low-wage bracket). A dedicated hotline for members of the public to lodge their feedback on employment and contribution non-compliance has also been set up.

In 2013, the number of enquiries and/or complaints peaked at 3,270 which was a 65% increase compared to 2012.
