Dear Members and Friends

2021 is the year of celebrating SG Women – defined as all women who live in Singapore. I have talked a lot this year about the responsibility of business leaders to co-create and sustain, with their teams, a positive workplace culture. One in which no-one is abused, discriminated against, harassed or sexually assaulted. A culture because of which everyone is integrated, developed and appreciated for personal and commercial success. I have also spoken a lot about businesses looking after their teams’ mental and physical wellbeing because it makes sense to look after the people who implement strategy, serve customers, achieve revenue growth and sustain each business.

Sadly, all of us either have had personal experience of cancer, live with someone or have a family member or friend who is battling it. The Singapore Cancer Society (SCS) is launching a new programme called SCS EmpowHER Campaign focusing on how each woman’s health is key to work performance and well-being.

Though many women may be aware of the availability of cancer screenings, and even of the need for them, there seems a fairly widespread lack of motivation to take the first step to make an appointment for these screenings.

This programme by SCS enables employers to make a difference in the lives of their women employees by empowering them to take an active role in cancer control. 

For more information on how your business can partner SCS to accomplish this, please email [email protected] or fill up this form.

Make time, too, to attend and encourage all women to attend SCS’ upcoming webinar on women’s cancer which your Chamber is supporting.

I am writing this on International Men’s Day (Nov 19). So, it is the perfect opportunity to say: don’t neglect the men in your business. They, too, need encouragement to look after themselves especially with regards to prostate cancer. SCS can help you with this too.


Yours faithfully
Victor Mills
