Time-Limited 8-Weeks Testing for Workplaces

Time-Limited 8-weeks Weekly Testing for workplaces

Please note that the application for Round 2 of the Time-Limited 8-Weeks Testing (Jan’21) has closed. Firms who have applied and received their ART kits are to commence weekly testing, and are reminded to submit the ART results declaration at the end of each month’s testing cycle (i.e. twice across the 8-weeks period) to the Government via this link: https://go.gov.sg/round-2-tlrrt-results-submissions.

Note: The cessation of mandatory Rostered Routine Testing (RRT) for higher-risk workplaces as announced in the 24 Mar MTF Press Release does not apply to the time-limited 8-weeks weekly testing at workplaces i.e. companies who applied and received kits under this Round 2 of time-limited kits distribution should continue weekly testing of eligible employees and report their test results to the Government until all the test kits received are fully utilised.

Compliance & Results Declaration

Firms that have applied for and received the ART kits are expected to commence weekly testing, and comply by the following:

• Only applied for test kits on behalf of employees who meet the eligibility criteria (i.e. fully vaccinated, work onsite, and not under mandatory Rostered Routine Testing (RRT) regime).

• Submit their ART results declaration at the end of each month’s testing cycle (i.e. twice across the 8-weeks period) to the Government via this link: https://go.gov.sg/round-2-tlrrt-results-submissions
