Aged care has one sector rule that bears on fatigue. The Nursing Home Service licence conditions (version 3.0, effective 7 May 2025) require sufficient nursing staff, in number and mix, for safe care, with staffing maintained at all times, including when staff are absent. The published conditions set no shift length or rest period, so fatigue is managed through the baseline safety duty and your own rostering.
标志仅用于识别监管机构,并不代表其认可。
The Ministry of Health licenses nursing homes under the Healthcare Services Act, with licence conditions that include staffing. MOM and the baseline safety and employment law cover the workforce itself.
As a licensee you must keep sufficient nursing staff to provide safe care and maintain staffing at all times, including cover for absence. That is where fatigue enters: covering gaps with double shifts meets the headcount but not the intent. Beyond that, the baseline applies - the safety duty, Employment Act hours caps for staff within the salary thresholds, and compulsory work injury insurance for manual and lower-paid staff.
Breaching a licence condition exposes the home to MOH action under the Healthcare Services Act, which can reach the licence itself. The baseline also applies to you as employer: up to S$500,000 for a company and S$200,000 and/or two years' jail for an individual (WSH Act maxima, 2026).
The Healthcare Services Act works mainly through the licence rather than a fine table, so the main exposure is to your ability to operate. On the employer side, baseline figures apply: WSH Act fines up to S$500,000 for a company (2026), and work injury compensation of up to S$346,000 for permanent incapacity (from 1 November 2025).
记录在案
No Singapore court, coroner, investigator or regulator has published a finding linking fatigue to an incident in aged care. Fatigue risk still falls under the Workplace Safety and Health Act duty and MOM's fatigue management guidelines.
