WORKFORCE Singapore (WSG) is gaining momentum in its efforts to help workers who are victims of economic restructuring to find new employment, according to Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong.
Some 30,000 people were placed in new jobs under the WSG's Adapt and Grow programmes last year, up from 25,000 in 2017," he told reporters on Friday after a three-hour tour of the Lifelong Learning Institute in Eunos.
