Committee of Supply 2026 debate, Day 4: Wan Rizal on driving workforce transformation
Technology does not transform companies, people do, and enterprises and workers must transform together for sustained growth, said MP Wan Rizal in parliament on Tuesday (Mar 3). He outlined four suggestions for implementing the Enterprise Workforce Transformation Package, noting that while many firms are investing in AI and automation, the “real test” is whether this is redesigning jobs or just reducing headcount. He also said that while enterprise transformation is necessary, workforce transformation is non-negotiable, and growth must upgrade workers or it will not last.
