25 Jun 2026 Stars Engrg Pte LtdStars Engrg: SGD 500,000 fine after fatal explosion SingaporeWorkplace safety and accidents €339,697

An explosion and fire at a heated mixer machine at Stars Engrg Pte Ltd's Tuas worksite on 24 February 2021 killed three workers and injured seven; the company was fined a total of SGD 500,000 under the Workplace Safety and Health Act. According to investigations by the Ministry of Manpower (MOM, Singapore's labour ministry) and an inquiry committee, the machine had been kept running despite repeated warning signs such as overheating, oil leaks, smoke and a fire shortly beforehand, and there were failures in risk assessment, safe work procedures, maintenance, supervision and training. After the incident, messages significant to the investigation were also deleted.

Relevance to training and awareness

Taking machinery warning signs seriously; risk assessment, safe work procedures and training

Missing or inadequate training played a role in the decision.

1 Apr 2026 Twelve Cupcakes Pte. Ltd.Twelve Cupcakes (Singapore): stern warning over unpaid salaries for 80 employees SingaporeMinimum wage and undeclared work Reprimand or warning

The Ministry of Manpower (MOM, Singapore's labour ministry) issued Twelve Cupcakes Pte. Ltd. a formal stern warning because 80 employees were not paid their salaries for 1 to 29 October 2025 after the company closed on 29 October 2025. The parent company Dhunseri Ventures Limited had placed it into liquidation because of an acute cash-flow shortfall; the ministry regarded the case as a genuine business closure in financial distress rather than a deliberate attempt to evade salary obligations and therefore limited its action to the warning.

What organisations can take from it

Even an unavoidable closure does not release an employer from paying wages – informing employees, the union and the authority early reduces the consequences for all sides.

How the radar is compiled

Official sources only

Every case is based on a decision, press release or database of an authority or a court. Press and law-firm reports count at most as additional references.

Four-eyes check

Whoever enters a case may not approve it. A second, independent check compares company, date, amount and area of law with the source. Only then is the case published.

Comparable amounts

Amounts are converted at the ECB reference rate on the day of the decision. Each case also shows the original amount.

Corrections on record

A correction is a new version that is checked again. Every change is logged. You can report errors directly on each case.

Case texts are translated from the German original. Where a translation is not yet available, the German text is shown and marked “(German original)”. Names of authorities, laws and companies are given as in the source (company names until they are anonymised).

Company names are anonymised two years after the decision in a case, in line with the practice of many supervisory authorities. The official sources remain linked.

The radar reports on published decisions and is not legal advice. Decisions that are not yet final are marked as such where the status is known.
