Programme Introduction




1. As part of its efforts to help older workers remain economically productive, the Government will enact re-employment legislation by 2012 to enable more people to continue working beyond the current statutory retirement age of 62, up to 65 in the first instance and, later, up to 67. This change, accompanied by increased Workfare Income Supplement (WIS) for older, low-wage workers, will complement the CPF Minimum Sum Draw Down Age (DDA), which will progressively be raised from 2012.

2. Formed under the aegis of the Tripartite Committee on Employability of Older Workers (“TriCom”), the Tripartite Implementation Workgroup (TIWG) aims to help companies put in place the necessary processes and systems for re-employment to work. Employers have to change their mindsets to see the value in re-employing older workers as a ready source of quality manpower and be willing to make the workplace age-friendly.

3. At the same time, workers must see the benefit of staying employed and active and be willing to be flexible and adaptable. As such, the TIWG has identified good practices on re-employment in the Tripartite Advisory on the Re-employment of Older Workers which SNEF will be sharing during this briefing.
