Henry Kwek on Workplace Fairness Bill
Many seniors have the experience, wisdom and resilience to contribute meaningfully yet some are unfairly sidelined. The Workplace Fairness Bill represents “a bold step” towards changing that reality. MP Henry Kwek said this in Parliament on Wednesday (Jan 8). He pointed out that ageism is “a hidden barrier” that deprives society of valuable skills and creates a culture of exclusion. “Without more action, we risk wasting the potential of our seniors, losing their contributions to our economy and our shared future,” said Mr Kwek, who voiced his support for the Bill and provided three key reasons as to why it is a game-changer.
