For years, many senior workers have felt caught between two options: continuing in a full-time role that may no longer be sustainable or retiring earlier than they would like.In Singapore, this decision is often shaped by practical realities. Rising living costs, conversations around CPF adequacy, and the desire to remain financially independent mean that many seniors want — or need — to continue working for longer.But that all-or-nothing choice is changing.As Singapore’s workforce ages, more support is being put in place to help senior workers stay employed in ways that are healthier, more flexible, and more meaningful.At the centre of this shift is the new Part-Time Re-employment Grant (PTRG), which encourages employers to create part-time roles and age-inclusive workplaces for senior workers aged 60 and above.Keeping in the spirit of the times, you’ll be hearing from CareersCompass’ AI colleagues, Aiden and Aileen, on understanding the following:What is the PTRG and what does it offer?How does it help senior workers work more flexibly?How can senior workers find out if their employer is on the PTRG?Ready to take charge of your career?
