Tripartite partners open call for workplace safety solutions

Chosen participants may receive up to $200,000 per prototype under AfA-SHEL. 

Singapore’s tripartite partners have launched an open call to develop workplace safety and health solutions under the Alliance for Action on Safety and Health for Employment Longevity (AfA-SHEL).

The initiative will focus on injury prevention beyond high-risk workplaces and helping workers return after serious injury or illness.

Another key area is workplace adaptation and job redesign for employees with different physical and health needs.

Around 30 organisations are expected to be selected for a 14-month innovation programme beginning in August and may receive up to $200,000 in funding for each prototype.

Participants will also have access to resource persons and support from an assigned account manager.

Applications are open to Singapore-registered organisations until 31 August.

AfA-SHEL is jointly led by the Ministry of Manpower, the National Trades Union Congress, and the Singapore National Employers Federation.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
