Fullerton Health said on November 14 that about 140,000 work pass holder records were compromised in a breach of its Migrant Worker Primary Care Plan programme in Singapore. About 43,000 records belonged to people whose work passes were no longer valid, CNA reported. Preliminary investigations indicated that names, foreign identification numbers, birth dates and contact details may have been affected. Fullerton said no health, medical or personal financial information was compromised. The provider isolated the affected server and is building a replacement enrolment portal. It has notified affected workers through employers, while the Ministry of Manpower has sent notifications through its FWMOMCare app.
