Programme Introduction




1. At the recent National Day Rally Speech by Prime Minister, Mr Lee Hsien Loong, he announced that the Government will enact the Re-employment Law which will take effect from 1 January 2012. This will require employers to offer re-employment to workers reaching retirement age of 62, up to 65 in the first instance.

2. The Tripartite Committee on Employability of Older Workers (TRICOM) has studied various international employment practices, which includes the Japanese model of Re-employment Legislation. Businesses will need to adjust appropriately to the Re-employment Legislation to achieve a higher effective retirement age.

3. Not to be missed! Hear it first-hand from our invited Guest Speaker from Japan, Mr Shinji Taya, Deputy General Manager (Human Resources Department) of Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation who will share on the challenges and experiences in re-employing workers on retirement in Japan.
