Average Weekly Paid Overtime Hours Worked Per Employee By Industry (Level 3)

Data from Feb 1990 to May 2024Updated 1 day ago

MOM (Ministry of Manpower)

Source: Labour Market Survey, Manpower Research & Statistics Department, MOM

Average Weekly Paid Overtime Hours Worked per Employee refers to the number of hours worked by an employee in excess of the standard hours for which the employees were paid. It excludes overtime hours worked for which "time-off" was granted instead of wage payment.

Before 2006, the Labour Market Survey covers private sector establishments each with at least 25 employees. From 2006 onwards, the survey also covers the public sector.

Data are rounded to one decimal place.

Data may not be strictly comparable due to the various versions of SSIC coding.
