What are the changes to the Terms and Conditions of our work pass eServices from 1 April 2022?Show
To help users better understand their obligations when using our work pass eServices, we have made the following changes:
- We have simplified the Terms and Conditions and grouped the related clauses together.
- As organisations and pass holders use the eServices for different purposes, we have defined their respective roles and responsibilities more clearly.
- Standardised the use of terms (e.g. ‘EP Online’, ‘WP Online’ and ‘myMOM Portal’ are now defined as ‘eServices’).
For more information, please refer to the updated T&Cs. The current T&Cs will apply before 1 April 2022.
