Dear Members and Friends

A couple of weeks ago when I wrote the editorial for this e-newsletter about the key messages of this year’s National Day Rally speech, I got a mixed reception. Some people were pleased about the messages on essential workers getting a better deal, others were happy ageism in the workforce would be outlawed.

Other correspondents were less than happy about plans to enshrine existing TAFEP guidelines into law. They are worried about weakening tripartism because of the threat of potentially costly, wasteful and, maybe even, frivolous litigation. They are worried too about the new law inadvertently further entrenching a misplaced sense of self-entitlement in the workforce.

What are your concerns, views and questions about talent and manpower matters? Please submit them this week to [email protected] and, better still, register to attend our online dialogue with Dr. Tan See Leng, Minister for Manpower on 24 September at 2pm. It is bound to be both candid and lively.

Have a good week ahead.

Yours faithfully
Victor Mills
Chief Executive
