do i need to contribute part of my salary to the central provident fund?

All Singapore citizens and permanent residents are required to contribute part of the gross salary to the Central Provident Fund.

As a Randstad contractor you are required to contribute part of your salary towards the CPF. The contributions rates are based on the gross salary and employee’s age. Please click here for more information. 

Work Permit holders will come under the CPF scheme if they become Singapore permanent residents. This takes effect from the day they are granted permanent residency.
