Note: If you have details of your outstanding salary claim, including the amount, you can submit your mediation request online with your Singpass. The next step will be an online or in-person mediation session at TADM.

You may also click on “Ask TADM” chatbot (icon at the bottom right) to get immediate answers to your queries, get a preliminary assessment and file your claim. You may be directed to make an appointment to speak to an advisory officer if the chatbot is unable to address your queries.

Do take note of the time limit(s) to file your claim(s). You may visit the Ministry of Manpower if you have general queries on the Employment Act.

Filing fees for mediation
  • $10 if you are claiming $10,000 or less
  • $20 if your claim exceeds $10,000

Fees are not refundable and are based on the claim amount declared when you file.
Payment methods

You can pay online by:

Kiosk at TADM Service Centres during operating hours (Visa or MasterCard credit or debit cards, NETS Card, NETS Flashpay, NETS QR Payment, EZ-Link)

Note: We do not accept cash payment.

Payment must be made within 3 days from the date of filing. If payment is not received within 3 days, the claim will be purged and you will need to refile the claim. 
How long it takes

Within 3 working days of payment, you will receive an email from TADM on the next steps of the dispute resolution process.

Employers can only claim for notice pay (also known as ‘salary in lieu of notice’). The employee must be covered under the Employment Act for you to claim.

You need to file within 6 months of the employee’s last day of employment.

You should first attempt to recover the notice pay from your former employee. For example, by sending them a letter to recover the payment.

Give them a reasonable period to respond. If there is no response, you may then file your claim for mediation.
