Chan Chun Sing called for a sectoral approach to raise productivity


To overcome the lacklustre productivity gains seen, Labour Chief Chan Chun Sing called for a united approach to re-examine mindsets and methods, including looking at job design.
“We got to go sectorally, to examine where are the laggards in our productivity drive. How best can we help them to uplift the productivity in their respective sectors?” he said.
“We either do this or we pretend that some broad macro measures will miraculously lift the productivity of all. I don’t believe that. I’ve visited enough companies to know that no two companies are the same.”
Recognising that raising productivity requires winning over workers, and retraining them according to their capabilities, Mr Chan pledged the labour movement’s commitment to work with the various ministries to “do this well”.
