e2i Placement Services and Job Security Council

Speakers: Evangeline Tan and Lee Pei Xi

e2i has assisted in the manpower needs of companies through the Adapt and Grow initiative to encourage employers to support Singaporeans in making career transitions, such as salary support programme from Professional Conversion Programme and Career Support Programme to hire eligible locals and Career Trial to assess a jobseeker's fit via a cost-free short-term work stint before offering employment.

This year, the NTUC Job Security Council (JSC) ecosystem is launched to pilot new ways to match and place workers, minimise retrenchments and shorten unemployment period. As part of the ecosystem, companies will receive support in their economic cycles to cope with fluctuating manpower needs.
