Yes HCWs are underpaid. This is coming from my perspective as a allied health professional working in one of the largest healthcare cluster in SG. It is high time MOH review our salary. Agreed with you, the only saving grace is the job is recession proof.

Pay is 4900 (ns) 4500 (no ns)
However I heard that there was a pay revision sometime last year. So not sure what is the starting pay now.
My pay now around 5.7k after the yearly increment for past 4 years. Planning to be go in the future, so nt sure about reg and ac pay.

Do MOs' pay increase throughout the years? Say MO year 1 $5000, MO year 2 $5500, etc. Or is the MO pay stagnant throughout the MO years?

Also is there any difference in MO pay for different specialization?

Doctor different from allied healthcare leh. Doctors earn so much more, especially if they specialize?
