Transient Workers Count Too (TWC2) is an NGO that assists low-wage migrant workers in Singapore. Common issues that we see include wage theft, illegal and excessive work hours, delayed or denied medical treatment, and recruitment scams.
The organization also advocates for policies that ensure the fair treatment of all migrant workers, and promotes the socio-political conditions in which exploitation, abuse and injustice become history.
TWC2 provides advice and support to low-wage migrant workers on problems like wage theft, illegal overtime hours, work injuries, wrongful dismissals, and more. Many of the clients who approach us might be threatened and afraid, or unsure of their rights.
We're looking for full- or part-time interns for the period of August 2026 to October 2026 (min. 3 months).
Interns will get hands-on experience in helping workers resolve their problems. You will provide advice to workers, explain the various steps in a case resolution process to them, respond to workers via our digital helpdesk, and assist with case documentation and salary calculations in our office. You will also get the chance to do a small research project (the topic will depend on your interests and the organization's needs).
We welcome interns from a variety of backgrounds, and do not expect candidates to have prior working experience. Instead, ideal interns should have some of the following skills:
- Enthusiasm about making a difference for migrant workers
- Good communication and teamwork
- Self-motivated and organized
- Not afraid to ask questions where necessary
- Any research skills
Send an email to info@twc2.org.sg with the header: Internship. Shortlisted candidates will be invited to an interview (in-person or online).
Please include:
an up-to-date CV
your period of availability
We shortlist by looking at your skillsets and unique interests, as TWC2 prefers to have a spread of interns across the social sciences, geography, law, business, mass communication, filmmaking, etc.
Communications internships are also available. See our website for more info: https://twc2.org.sg/getinvolved/intern-with-us/
Internships are also subject to the availability of space in our office, and interns are accepted on a rolling basis. The high-demand periods are from May–August and October–December. It pays to apply early if you are choosing to intern during these peak periods.
