Seniors still face difficulties in securing employment in Singapore's fast-transforming economy and amid rapid digitalisation, MP Ng Ling Ling said in Parliament on Tuesday (Mar 2). She raised her concerns over the elderly's struggle in navigating training, support and matching schemes. As such, she proposed that the Government partner employers and, with the support of grants, create more jobs to help seniors seeking employment.
