SINGAPORE: From 2018 to 2020, 11 Employment Pass and S Pass holders working in the Infocomm Technology industry were found to have submitted false qualifications to the Ministry of Manpower , said Manpower Minister Tan See Leng on Monday .AdvertisementDr Tan was replying to parliamentary questions from MP Gan Thiam Poh who asked how many Employment Pass and S Pass holders in the ICT industry have submitted fabricated or forged education qualification certifications in the past three years.

Dr Tan said all employers have the primary responsibility to ensure the authenticity and quality of their candidates’ qualifications when submitting work pass applications.MOM also conducts additional checks by screening the qualifications submitted through its database of institutions and it will reject applications with fake or unaccredited qualifications.

"For applications containing qualifications from institutions not in our database, we require employers to submit verification proof from third-party screening organisations to ensure the qualifications submitted are accredited." MOM had previously said that over the last five years, an average of 660 foreigners per year have been banned from working in Singapore for submitting fake education qualifications in their work pass applications.The ministry also responded to a question by MP Louis Chua on how it enforces the restrictions on work pass holders who work part-time other than for their designated employer.

I suppose those besotted with just 11 cases in three years, have curriculum vitae with zero exaggeration of skills and experience - unlike the rest of us 🙄
