Committee of Supply 2026 debate, Day 4: Sanjeev Kumar Tiwari on senior employability
Senior workers bring deep domain knowledge and hard-earned experience but as Singapore moves into a super-aged society, it must ensure that its policies continue to work better for senior workers. NMP Sanjeev Kumar Tiwari, who made this call in parliament on Tuesday (Mar 3), asked for an update on what is being done to provide more work options and expand flexible work arrangements. He also wanted to know how the Ministry of Manpower plans to intervene at the mid-career stage to help workers stay employable before they reach their late-50s.
