What some of our clients are saying
Mr Tan Seng Chai, Deputy Chief Corporate Officer & Chief Human Resource Officer, CapitaLand Ltd
“The conference presented a great opportunity to learn and share about this important challenge of having an aging workforce in Singapore. It has cleverly positioned to look at this issue from both the psychological and physiological perspective. From the many experience presented by MNCs, participants could learn about various policies and practices that are more age-neutral or age-blind which are more sustainable.”
Mr Liaw Wee Tong, Executive Director, Red Element Health International Pte Ltd
“AFWA2011 provided me with valuable insights from the senior management of Singapore’s biggest employers from both the public and private sectors. As a society prepares for an aging workforce, health promotion at workplace is a social responsibility. In addition, bringing health promotion to workplace is crucial for far-sighted employers who believe healthy aging gives lifelong employability and creates a happier and more productivity workforce. The only door to open is the willingness and spirit of an employer.”
Mr Phua Thye Hin, Managing Director, TCG Rengo (S) Limited
“This event reinforced that "sliver surf" is here to stay and that both employer and employee have the responsibity to hold hand together to walk the path gracefully.”
Mr Tan Kwang Cheak, Senior Director, Operations, Brand Extensions, Business Planning and Human Resources, McDonald’s Restaurants Pte Ltd
“It was a well-organized and thought-provoking conference with much thought given to the design of the programme as well as the invitations of good speakers and panel discussion members.”
Dr Yeoh Swee Inn, Consultant Endocrinologist, Gleneagles, Visiting Consultant Endocrinologist, Singapore General Hospital and Changi General Hospital
“The presentations were relevant to the needs of the attendees, as health forms an integral part of one's working life and beyond. The chosen topics were relevant as they covered subjects which are most pressing in our patient population. Heart disease, cancer, Infections, diseases afflicting the elderly are regular diagnoses covered by health practitioners, and the speakers I heard spoke commendably and in a relevant manner i.e. addressing the needs of those attendees who were obviously willing students of health issues.”
Ms Charmaine Sim, Director, Human Resources, IBM Singapore
“The topics in the conference were not only timely, they were relevant. From the various sharings, there are many good practices already implemented in Singapore that we can all learn from.”
Mr Sim S. Lim, Managing Director and Singapore Country Manager, DBS Bank
"This event organized by the Jurong Rotary Club again shows how Singaporeans thinks forward to prepare themselves for the future. The shift in demographics is real and the country, the people, the system must accept, think and use it to our advantage on how we can all make it a win-win situation for one and all."
