800 seek internships

0
PRODDED by desperate times, 800 jobseekers flocked to the South West CDC Internship Fair on Friday, eager to land stints in industries which have been shunned by many Singaporeans.
The Internship Programme is the first of its kind and allows successful applicants to try out jobs in real working environments for three to five days, before deciding to commit to them.

During the internship, employers will provide on-the-go training. Employees will get a chance to wait on customers, pitch sales, or even learn a thing or two about installing air-conditioners. For their efforts, job seekers will receive an allowance of $4 an hour from the South West CDC.

Singapore’s strategy to help workers cope with downturn works

0
SINGAPORE: Singapore’s Manpower Minister, Gan Kim Yong, has said that the US$13.7 billion budgeted to help Singaporeans deal with the economic downturn has been money well spent.

Speaking at an International Labour Conference in Geneva, Mr Gan noted that initiatives like the Skills Programme for Upgrading and Resilience (SPUR) have helped to save jobs.

In the first quarter alone, Singapore’s unemployment stood at 3.3 per cent — one of the lowest in the world, despite Singapore’s economy slowing down by 10.1 per cent year—on—year.

A recent tripartite survey also showed that more than six in 10 employers had deferred or reduced retrenchments, thanks to SPUR and the Jobs Credit Scheme that encourage businesses to save jobs.

Mr Gan added that more workers have also gone for training under SPUR, boosting the quality of Singapore’s workforce.

Moving forward, he said Singapore remains focused on long—term objectives, such as to develop a globally competitive workforce, enhance income security and lifelong learning, and to continue to build globally leading workplaces.

This can be done by improving occupational safety and health, and promoting progressive human capital development and employment practices.

"Although the economic outlook is still uncertain, with strong tripartite cooperation and commitment, we are confident that we will weather the crisis and emerge stronger than before,"
