hi all. just got the letter of offer. it states annual salary, including AWS. This would lower the monthly salary. If I divide by 12 mths, then it would meet my expected salary. Shouldn't the AWS not be included in the annual salary? Thinking of calling HR to enquire about this.
Also no encashment of em'er portion of CPF... Hmmm...

They already told you the total annual package. Can't get much clearer than that.

Whether you take that annual amount and divide by 12 or 13 is inconsequential.

What you want to do is negotiate. Go back to them with the expected annual package you want. That would be crystal clear for everyone. But if you want to minimise your CPF contribution and maximise cash in hand, you'd want to have maximum Jan-Dec salary and zero AWS. But you lose the employer contribution as well.

im not a pr. it will be my first year working in SG. so there's no cpf contributions (em'ee & em'er), right?

for salary negotiation, how should one start the opening sentence?
for eg they have offered u $xxx per annum. But you would like a higher figure.
