Koh Poh Koon on measures to support re-employment and mid-career transitions
The long-term unemployment rate for resident professionals, managers, executives and technicians (PMETs) in their 40s and 50s remained within the range observed during non-recessionary periods, indicating that structural unemployment risks remain low and stable, said Senior Minister of State for Manpower Koh Poh Koon in parliament on Tuesday (Feb 24). In response to an MP’s question on support measures for mature workers, he said that several programmes offer a higher level of support for mature workers, such as Workforce Singapore’s Mid-Career Pathways Programme and the SkillsFuture Career Transition Programme.
