Singapore strengthens protection for platform workers with official recognition of NTUC Platform Work Associations The National Taxi Association (NTA), National Private Hire Vehicles Association (NPHVA) and National Delivery Champions Association (NDCA) have achieved a significant milestone - official registration under the Platform Workers Act, effective 7 January 2025. This development empowers these associations to legally represent approximately 67,600 platform workers, negotiate collective agreements, and enhance protection of workers’ interests.
