Dedicated MyCareersFuture Platform for Blue-collar and Vocational Jobseekers
Ministry of ManpowerSpeakers
Transcript
18 Mr Kenneth Tiong Boon Kiat asked the Minister for Manpower (a) whether there is a dedicated equivalent of MyCareersFuture for blue-collar and vocational job seekers, such as drivers, plumbers and technicians; (b) if not, how such workers are expected to discover job opportunities; and (c) whether the Ministry will consider enhancing MyCareersFuture to better serve non-professional, manager, executive and technician (non-PMET) job seekers.
Dr Tan See Leng: MyCareersFuture portal provides job search support for all jobseekers by listing both professional, manager, executive and technician (PMET) and non-PMET job vacancies.
Jobseekers who require additional support can tap on employment facilitation services offered by Workforce Singapore (WSG), the National Trades Union Congress' (NTUC's) Employment and Employability Institute (e2i) as well as WSG's appointed career matching providers, Ingeus and AKG, via 32 career centres and jobs and skills centres across Singapore. They can also participate in career events organised by WSG, NTUC's e2i and Community Development Councils (CDCs), including those under the Jobs Nearby @ CDC initiative that connects residents to job opportunities closer to home.
