"About 30,000 workers found jobs through Adapt and Grow initiative in 2018: PM Lee
SINGAPORE: About 30,000 job seekers found work last year through the Adapt and Grow initiative designed to help Singaporeans affected by the economic slowdown and restructuring, said Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong on Friday (Jan 11).
This was an increase from the 25,000 in 2017 – an “encouraging” figure that pointed to growing momentum in the Government’s efforts to help Singaporeans grow their skills and adapt to changing job demands, Mr Lee told reporters after a visit to the Workforce Singapore’s (WSG) Careers Connect centre located at the Lifelong Learning Institute in Paya Lebar.
Amid an ongoing restructuring of the economy and disruptive forces that have impacted the labour market, Mr Lee acknowledged that “many people are anxious” about what that means for their livelihoods and families.
Therefore, help, such as WSG and its array of programmes, is available for individuals given that the country cannot “avoid the changes that are happening”.
“The way forward is to go with the change and therefore, become more productive, do better jobs and earn better pay,” he stressed.
Mr Lee said he hoped his visit to the Lifelong Learning Institute, which is the “first significant visit” that he is making in 2019, will reinforce this “right signal”."
This is amazing numbers! 25k in 2017 n 30k in 2018. A fairly significant no. of jobs.
Hopefully those individuals who left comments in LLI WSG site are just the outliners who said they could not land a job through WSG SG Job Portal!!
Not easy as some above 45 or 50 yrs old said: at this age, without a referral, u may not even get a chance to interview!!
Blessed Sgp citizens. Blessed the jobseekers!
