SINGAPORE: A series of industry-specific human resources playbooks is being developed to guide HR professionals to address and solve challenges specific to their sectors, Senior Minister of State for Manpower Zaqy Mohamad announced on Wednesday .

Formed in 2018, the panel aims to equip the HR industry to play an integral role in business transformation as well as chart the next phase of development for the industry. In his speech, Mr Zaqy cited a study by advisory firm Willis Towers Watson which found that almost 90 per cent of all HR roles would be impacted by technology.

HR professionals must be ready to embrace new skills and opportunities for better career development, he added. Mr Zaqy reassured those in roles at higher risk of displacement by technology that there would be opportunities to upskill themselves to develop new skills and competencies. “This requires robust and merit-based talent hiring processes, as well as measures that ensure workplace diversity and inclusiveness, so that organisations can recruit from a wide and diverse pool of talent."
