(b) The increase in the CPF contributions for employees aged above 55 to 65 will be fully allocated to the Retirement Account (RA), up to their Full Retirement Sum (FRS), to help senior workers save more for retirement. If employees have already set aside their FRS in their RA, these contributions will be channelled to their Ordinary Account.

 

(c) Contribution rate increases will also apply to senior workers earning monthly wages of more than $500 to $750, who contribute at phased-in contribution rates. For such seniors, their phased-in contribution rates will proportionally increase.

 

(d) There are no changes to the graduated contribution rates for first and second year Singapore Permanent Residents.
