Healthcare Professionals Community formed to support growth of 9,000 workers

Members of the community are from nine healthcare associations.

The Healthcare Services Employees' Union (HSEU) has formed the Healthcare Professionals Community (HPC) to support the growth of about 9,000 healthcare workers.

Members of HPC, who are workers of the nine healthcare associations, can access the resources of HSEU and the National Trade Union Congress (NTUC).

The HPC will extend training opportunities available to public healthcare workers to those in private healthcare and specialised fields such as optometry, oral health therapy, psychology, and physiotherapy.

As part of its partnership with the healthcare associations, HSEU also formed Operation and Technology Roadmaps (OTR) and Company Training Committees (CTC) to support workers impacted by sector changes.

HSEU said healthcare workers can expect improved wages, welfare, and career prospects as part of these efforts.

To strengthen ties with the associations, HSEU will launch the Healthcare Mentorship Programme (HCMP) in early 2025 in partnership with the Ong Teng Cheong Labour Leadership Institute.

The two-way mentorship will allow association and HSEU leaders to exchange expertise.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
