Singapore’s ageing population isn’t a challenge—it’s an opportunity. With the government’s renewed support through initiatives like the Senior Employment Credit (SEC) and the formation of a Tripartite Workgroup on Senior Employment, the landscape is shifting to actively support mature workers in contributing meaningfully to the workforce.
At CGP Personnel, we strongly believe that experience is invaluable. We are proud to support this national direction by actively hiring and placing senior professionals aged 60 and above in meaningful roles across industries.
What This Means for Employers
Singapore’s new push to empower senior employment isn’t just a social initiative — it’s a strategic advantage for businesses. Here’s how employers can benefit from the government’s efforts:
Cost Savings with Government Support
- Senior Employment Credit (SEC) helps offset wage costs for hiring Singaporeans aged 60 and above earning under $4,000/month — extended till 31 Dec 2026.
- CPF Transition Offset cushions the increase in employer CPF contributions — automatically applied, with no need to apply.
Access to Skilled, Reliable Talent
- Mature workers bring decades of experience, stability, and institutional knowledge.
- They often demonstrate higher loyalty, reliability, and work ethic, making them valuable assets in customer-facing, operations, and mentoring roles.
Flexibility to Meet Workforce Needs
- With more seniors seeking part-time or flexible work, employers can tap into this segment to address labour shortages without long-term commitments.
- Aligns well with Tripartite Guidelines on Flexible Work Arrangements, enhancing workplace inclusivity.
Brand & ESG Value
- Demonstrating commitment to inclusive hiring and age diversity enhances your employer brand.
- Supports your ESG and social responsibility goals, signaling you value equity and diversity across all age groups.
Forward-Thinking Talent Strategy
- Singapore’s workforce is ageing. Building policies that include senior workers today means future-proofing your organisation’s talent model.
- You’ll be better positioned to adapt to demographic shifts and regulatory developments.
