Written Answer to PQ on Update on Jobs Transformation Maps

NOTICE PAPER NO. 229 OF 2025 FOR THE SITTING ON 4 NOVEMBER 2025
QUESTION NO. 568 FOR WRITTEN ANSWER

MP: Dr Charlene Chen

To ask the Minister for Manpower (a) whether the Ministry can provide an update on the Jobs Transformation Maps; (b) how these initiatives support mid-career employees adapting to industry shifts; and (c) what assistance is provided to help sectors that are undergoing restructuring to equip affected workers for new or redesigned roles.

Answer:

1. To date, 19 Jobs Transformation Maps (JTMs) have been launched, covering about 1.7 million employed residents.

2. To support mid-career employees in adapting to industry shifts, Workforce Singapore (WSG) uses the insights from the JTMs to shape sectoral workforce interventions such as the Job Redesign and Reskilling (JRR) Career Conversion Programmes (CCPs). The JRR CCPs reskill workers in growth job roles identified in the JTMs. For example, JTM findings have guided the development of the CCP for Sustainability Professionals and the training for these roles. In 2024, the JRR CCPs enabled more than 400 companies to reskill workers into growth job roles, benefitting around 2,300 individuals.

3. For sectors undergoing restructuring, the JTMs help WSG and sector agencies anticipate future workforce needs and develop appropriate workforce interventions. For example, the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), Institute of Banking and Finance (IBF) and WSG are working with several financial institutions to translate the insights from a JTM on Generative AI (Gen AI) in the Financial Services Sector to upskilling and reskilling interventions for impacted jobs. WSG and the Singapore Tourism Board (STB) have also rolled out an industry playbook and workshops based on insights from the Hotel Industry JTM to share lessons across the sector.

4. WSG continuously refines JTM methodologies based on sector agency feedback and industry insights so that JTM recommendations can be translated into actionable plans for industry.
