Key areas of focus

  • What levers does the Labour Movement and/or unions possess to mitigate the impact of external shocks (e.g. financial crises, pandemics, war) on workers?
  • In an increasingly digital and globalised economy, how can unions address the challenges posed by the future of work, such as the rise of the gig economy and remote work?
  • What new vulnerabilities will workers of tomorrow face and what role(s) can the Labour Movement and/or unions play to rally workers and support Singapore’s competitiveness in the global economy?
