It is estimated that as many as 80,000 Singaporeans are now unemployed with many of them in the 40s and 50s age group. Under employment is also rampant as retrenched mid-career PMETs took to driving cabs or become property agents in the fight for survival – ironically in our prosperous high-GDP city state.
We all know that finances are also a big part of the jobless problem so we will try to cater a portion of the site’s articles to provide for this need.
We also have an online counselling service specially catered to the needs of the unemployed. The retrenched worker can email us and we will provide you with an online counsellor. If need to, the service can be done via face to face or phone mode.
We a have regular support group meetings conducted by a counsellor. The 4-part series recently ended in May 09 and we will come up with another series soon. The unemployed can now come together to support one another in a formal setting. They also can network with one another for opportunities.
We give free talks to the unemployed through sponsored organisations. So far talks have been provided at Care Corner Counselling and Executive Counselling & Training Academy (ECTA).
