Retrenched and needy workers can expect more help from the National Trades Union Congress (NTUC), which hopes to boost its war chest to $20 million by May.
Particularly in need are workers who received little, if any, retrenchment benefits, said its secretary-general, Mr Lim Swee Say, yesterday.
A new fund, U Care, will be added to its existing Care and Share programme which provides aid to needy union members in the form of transport and utility vouchers.
