FARK! FTs spouses on dependent passes are also trying to get jobs here... All these thanks to the magnanimous PAP Govt.... I don't think other countries allow this?

</TD></TR><TR><TD colSpan=2><HR></TD></TR><TR><TD colSpan=2>Hello,
At first, it looks quite easy for a Dependant's Pass (DP) holder to work in Singapore, the only thing required is to apply for a Letter of Consent (LOC) when he/she has found an employer. But the tough part is to find the employer! and it's quite frustrating to see 99% of the job offers mentionning "Singaporeans and PR only".
Also I would like to know what are the implications for company when it employs a DP holder:
- Does the company have to give preference to Singaporeans and PR first?
- In the case the company needs/wants to employ a DP holder, is a justification needed?
- Are there limititaions?
- Does the company need to pay extra charges/taxes if it employs a DP holder?
Thank you in advance for your help.
