Are Singaporean employees becoming complacent?

Only 3 in 10 want their employers to provide more reskilling opportunities.

Only 32% of respondents said that their experience with their current employer during the pandemic has motivated them to request reskilling and upskilling support, according to a report by Randstad.

Additionally, only 27% of respondents in Singapore want their employers to provide more reskilling opportunities whilst close to one in four respondents (24%) said they wished for more support programmes to improve their skills or to adapt to the new work environment and the job market.

Employers also show a lack of interest in providing reskilling as only 15% of respondents said that their employer had implemented more reskilling opportunities during the pandemic.

Employment satisfaction, however, is high with around three in five (63%) of respondents saying they are satisfied with their current employer.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
