Employment in GMC operates under the adopted Singapore Employment Act 1968 and the Employment of Foreign Manpower Act 1990, a framework most Bhutanese employers and many foreign investors have never worked with. The rules on contracts, working hours, termination, and foreign hiring differ materially from mainland Bhutanese labour law, and companies operating in both jurisdictions must run two compliant systems in parallel.

Employment contracts, handbooks, and policies compliant with the adopted Singapore framework

Foreign manpower strategy: work authorization for international hires in GMC

Executive and key personnel agreements, including those required as GFSO licence conditions

Termination, restructuring, and dispute advice

Parallel compliance design for groups employing staff in both GMC and mainland Bhutan

Secondment and intra-group mobility structures

We advise start-ups, multinational companies, regulated financial institutions, technology businesses, family offices, investment funds, and growing enterprises establishing teams in Gelephu Mindfulness City.
