Median Wage Growth of Workers Employed by Public Transport Operators

13 Ms Hazel Poa asked the Minister for Transport (a) in the past five years, what is the median wage growth for (i) Professionals, Managers and Executives, (ii) non- Professionals, Managers and Executives and (iii) senior management employed by public transport operators; (b) whether the Ministry will consider making this data publicly available in future fare review exercises; and (c) what is the reason for using the national wage index rather than the wage index specifically for the public transport operators.

Mr Chee Hong Tat (for the Minister for Transport): I thank the Member for her question. I have addressed it in my reply at the Parliament Sitting on 3 October 2023.
