SINGAPORE - More than 37,000 healthcare workers who are at risk of losing their jobs received a boost on Tuesday , as two new training committees were set up to help them reskill amid changes in the industry.
These workers represent more than 60 per cent of workers in the healthcare sector, NHG, SingHealth and the Healthcare Academy said in a joint statement on Tuesday. President of the Healthcare Services Employees' Union , Ms K. Thanaletchimi, said of the latest efforts:"This is the first step, but an important one. I look forward to... translating these changes into real actionables for workers."
The three groups said recent efforts have already been made to help workers, such as the HSEU's work with Khoo Teck Puat Hospital that helped 46 hospital porters take on roles more closely related to patient care.
