Budget 2026: Singapore extends Senior Employment Credit through 2027

A tripartite workgroup will deliver senior job recommendations later this year.

Singapore will step up support for senior workers, helping them plan for later-stage careers and refresh their skills, whilst encouraging employers to design age-friendly jobs and multi-generational workplaces. 

The Ministry of Manpower (MOM) has set up a tripartite workgroup on senior employment to study these issues, with recommendations expected later this year. 

“In the meantime, we will extend the Senior Employment Credit to end 2027 to support employers who continue to employ senior workers as we create better jobs and upskill Singaporeans,” Prime Minister Lawrence Wong said at the Singapore Budget 2026.

Singapore will also maintain an open approach to global talent.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
