      If you talked about individual's perspective, what you say is fine.. i.e. no need to be fearful.


      However, we're discussing the possible impact on the community, not whether one should or should not be fearful. Hence, I feel OCBC's naming is in bad taste. The implementation is good, but the naming is no good.

      It actually singled out PSLE as a reason to take leave.

      Allowing parents to take leave during PSLE and OPENLY endorsing PSLE as a valid reason to take leave can have different impact on the employees. To say OCBC is fuelling fear is not totally untrue.
      *LIKEEE*. 😉

        During any major exams, PSLE, O or A Levels, can we safely say that there is a certain amount of anxiety or fear?

        How much anxiety or fear depends on each individuals. So, I don't see how this will add to it as it is already omnipresent.

                    Ok, naming it as 'PSLE leave' does leave a bad aftertaste...frightening especially for newly weds and those planning families. Would 'exam leave' be more appropriate? :siam:

                        Frankly if PSLE is major enough for one MP to discuss about slaughtering this scared cow, I don’t think impact will be small.
