1. Networking at Industry Groups Meeting
   
We provide opportunities for you to participate in industry groups meetings where you will meet with other employers in the same industry group to discuss and share your concerns. There are 13 industry groups altogether. These meetings are usually held once every 3 months. The topics discussed at such meetings include National Wages Council recommendation guidelines, Tripartite recommendations on the Retirement Age & other employment issues and issues pertaining to the industries.

SNEF represents you on committees responsible for the formulation of tripartite policies. We will provide employers with the latest policies' changes and updates on employment issues. We also receive information on labour and employment issues and analyse this information before presenting it to the members. Members will therefore obtain relevant and value added information from SNEF through briefings, and be more aware of the implications and impact of such issues on members.

SNEF invites all members to attend free briefings on topical issues held on a regular basis, usually once a month.
