SINGAPORE - Some companies have decided to return the Government's Jobs Support Scheme payments and decline future payouts, while others are donating the money to charity, said Deputy Prime Minister Heng Swee Keat on Sunday evening.

The wage subsidies are intended to save jobs amid enhanced safe distancing measures, effectively requiring most workers to telecommute and those in non-essential services to temporarily cease operations to stem the spread of the coronavirus. The money that Boehringer Ingelheim is donating makes up the majority of its JSS payout, said Mr Gerrard McKenna, country managing director and head of human pharma for the Southeast Asia and South Korea regional operating unit.

Another company that has decided to donate its payout is DSM Nutritional Products. Its business model has proven to be"relatively resilient" despite the crisis, said Asia-Pacific president Pieter Nuboer.
