CHINA WORKER EMPLOYMENT AND RECRUITMENT AGENCY IN SINGAPORE
Singapore’s labour market continues to rely on foreign manpower to sustain growth. According to the National Population and Talent Division, the foreign workforce accounts for two-thirds of the non-resident population today. Among them, workers from the PRC (China) form an important group due to their skills, adaptability, and willingness to support critical operations across the economy.
At Nala Employment, we specialise in helping companies hire China workers in Singapore. From sourcing to work permit applications, we streamline the process so that employers can focus on business operations, profits, and long-term development while meeting all legal and compliance requirements.
Why Hire China Workers for Your Business in Singapore with Nala Employment
Many companies in Singapore turn to China workers because of their strong work ethic, experience in diverse industries, and ability to adapt to change and shifting business requirements. Whether your business is scaling operations, recovering from the pandemic, or dealing with labour shortages in supply chain networks, Nala Employment is here to provide solutions.
We support employers in hiring PRC workers for temporary and permanent placements, across job levels and sectors such as engineering, healthcare, nursing, food and beverage (F&B), manufacturing and logistics, and service industries.
High Efficiency
Our streamlined recruitment process keeps your operations on track, helping you meet production deadlines and labour standards without disruption. We act quickly from consultation to placement. At the same time, we ensure 100% compliance with government regulations.
Continuous Support
We go beyond just placement. Our consultants follow up with both employers and workers to resolve issues early, minimise turnover, and ensure the arrangement supports long-term operations.
Access to a Skilled Labour Pool
Our recruitment network spans across various regions in China, including well-established industrial hubs such as Guangdong and Jiangsu, as well as fast-growing cities like Shenzhen. We leverage this network to connect employers with a wide pool of candidates who bring diverse skills and experience. Whether you need specialised talent or general labour, we provide options that align with your company’s requirements.
Optimal Job Opportunities for PRC Workers in Singapore
For China workers, Singapore offers stability, clear wage standards, and opportunities across industries that value their skills. At Nala Employment, we partner with employers to ensure PRC workers receive fair wages and overtime pay in line with Ministry of Manpower (MOM) requirements, as well as employer-provided medical insurance and security bond coverage where applicable.
Beyond compliance, we also help create opportunities for skill development and career progression, so workers can see a clear path forward in their roles. With safe working conditions that meet government regulations, companies are able to provide the right support and treatment, which not only protects worker rights but also reduces attrition. Ultimately, this allows businesses to attract motivated employees and maintain smooth operations that strengthen long-term growth.
Search from a Pool of Talented PRC Workers
As an established PRC recruitment agency, Nala Employment evaluates candidates not only on skill but also on culture fit and adaptability. We consider each employer’s company context—industry, operations, and workforce needs—before matching them with the right workers.
This ensures that employers in Singapore not only meet immediate labour needs but also build a sustainable workforce that supports development, profits, and resilience against changes in the global economy. By paying close attention to both employer needs and worker readiness, we help companies safeguard their investment in manpower and long-term management of operations.
