Introduction of pilot night clinics for migrant workers
- On 29 August 2020, MOM disseminated an advisory on how migrant workers should report sick.
- Continued vigilance is critical in our fight against COVID-19 and workers who are unwell should not return to work but should see a doctor. Today, migrant workers can see a doctor at a regional medical centre, which is operational from 9:30am to 5:30pm daily, or via Telemedicine, which is accessible through the FWMOMCare mobile application.
- To facilitate better access to medical services, we will be introducing a pilot night clinics initiative. From 1 October 2020 to 31 October 2020, three Regional Medical Centres will be operational from 6:30pm to 9:30pm daily, in addition to their regular daytime operating hours.
- Employers and dormitory operators may schedule a night-time appointment by calling the Managing Agent in charge of the dormitory’s region. If your worker lives in a dormitory, transport will be arranged by the Managing Agent to and from the medical centres. If your worker resides in the community (i.e. HDB or Private Residential Premises), employers should self-arrange transport on behalf of your worker.

- We will review the effectiveness of this initiative and may expand this to more medical centres in the future. We hope that this initiative will better serve our migrant workers.
