What would you say to a retrenched Bank Manager - with fifteen
years experience - 50 years old now and no other bank will employ
or retrained him, BUT the banks are hiring Foreign Talents for
other positions ?
So a 50 year old Bank Manager should now throw away an accumulated
experience of 15 years - to do what ?
Sell hamburgers ?
Sell insurances ?
Sell automobiles ?
Work in a Hotel in the Housekeeping Department ?
Work as a handiman in a Public Swimming Pool ?
What is the Manpower Ministry planning for all the talented
Singaporeans with experiences that are retrenched, and staying
retrenched due to their age ?
If retrenched workers with 15 years cannot find jobs, how much more
difficult will young graduates from our tertiary institutions be
facing ?
What about those Young Singaporeans without tertiary education and
with an ITE qualification ? How are they coping in the job market
?
Surely, they will be more severely taken advantage in an
over-supply Labor Market ?
