🇸🇬𝗦𝗚: 𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗚𝘂𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗙𝗹𝗲𝘅𝗶-𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗔𝗿𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 (𝗙𝗪𝗔𝘀) 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗶𝗰 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻! Interestingly, someone I personally know has created this comic explaining the new Guidelines for FWAs. This FWAs was announced last Tuesday, 16 Apr 2024, by both the TAFEP Tripartite Alliance for Fair and Progressive Employment Practices Workgroup and the Ministry of Manpower (MOM). Although the comic was created out of his own joy, I find them very well explained and humorous (using Singlish) too. I got his exclusive approval to use it for my post here. Appreciate his kindness truly. Thank you. You may want to read the comic first so that you have a better understanding of what this FWAs is about. Below are just my thoughts and conclusion. 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗹𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 Whenever there is a new law or new set of guidelines, I feel sad as well as glad at the same time. Sad because we are so incapable of being reasonable and logical that we need the law to rule us. Glad because there are laws to address matters acted by unreasonable and illogical us. Nonetheless, a coin has 2 sides, as laws, rules or guidelines are always a double-edged sword that could work for you or against you at different times. Sorry that I digressed…. In conclusion, instead of looking at the new guideline as a win or lose, right or wrong, work or don’t work, pro or against perspective, I would choose to look at it as a labour transition in our era, where AIs and even Robots are/will be part of the workforce. “The Only Constant in life is Change.” - Heraclitus **Sources:** - MOM - Tripartite Guidelines that Shape the Right Norms and Expectations Around Flexible Work Arrangements to Come into Effect on 1 Dec 2024 https://lnkd.in/dfSFhhMi - Report of the Tripartite Workgroup on the Tripartite Guidelines on Flexible Work Arrangement Requests - https://lnkd.in/djEDy2FK - Tripartite Guidelines on Flexible Work Arrangement Requests - https://go.gov.sg/tgfwar - MOM - Flexible Work Arrangement https://lnkd.in/dwqRSg_N #RethinkingHiring #FWAs #FWA #Flexi-WorkArrangement #SGFWAs

30 Key Takeaways from the Exclusive HR Dinner on "Tackling Challenges in Talent Management" by Shakrit Chanrungsakul, Sukawat Penpokai, Nattapol Jongjaroonkiat Nuttawut Kietchaiyakorn and Wasin Jerdnapaphan💡👩‍💼👨‍💼 1. A survey conducted a decade ago revealed that out of 300 organizations undergoing transformation, only 12% were successful. 2. Surprisingly, after 10 years, the number of successful organizations remained the same. 3. However, there's a notable decrease in organizations failing and an increase in those achieving moderate success. 4. Despite similar budgets and management support, the main obstacle remains the human factor. 5. The primary challenge lies in leaders, strategies, managers, and operations not aligning towards a common goal. 6. Therefore, prioritizing people before technology is crucial for successful transformation. 7. Developing digital literacy and a common language within the organization is essential for driving future talent. 8. HR is increasingly using digital skills as criteria for employee selection, and universities should prepare students accordingly. 9. Each employee often possesses multiple skill sets, and it's essential for managers to identify and utilize these skills effectively. 10. Organizations should consider the "Lifetime Value Employment" of employees to optimize management strategies. 11. Post-COVID job interviews often focus on remote work capabilities. 12. Corporate social responsibility policies are becoming central, reflecting the need for cultural shifts in work methodologies. 13. Current workforce dynamics result in short-term employee tenures, emphasizing the importance of reskilling and retaining talent. 14. Many organizations aim for Digital Transformation and becoming Data-driven Organizations. 15. However, achieving this requires having ready and reliable data and information sources to utilize beforehand. 16. The journey of reskilling starts from Digital Literacy (understanding digital principles) to Digital Fluency (being able to apply them in work). 17. Subsequently, it progresses towards Digital Savvy (being able to create business impact or solve problems using digital tools). 18. Reskilling efforts need not apply to everyone; instead, development needs should be assessed at the business unit level. 19. Adequate learning resources and evaluation tools should be provided accordingly. 20. Defining individual development needs allows organizations to tailor training programs effectively, reducing effort and budget. 21. Digital literacy, particularly in AI, is crucial in today's landscape, emphasizing AI ethics and responsible use. 22. Besides corporate branding, organizations should focus on their "people brand" to attract and retain talent effectively. 23. Building People Brand should consider the Employer Value Proposition (EVP), conveying how organizations value their employees. Continue in comment >>
