SINGAPORE - Singapore's beauty industry is getting a skills facelift with the launch of a new framework to help more than 13,000 workers in the industry to plan their career and development pathways.
Ms Low said:"People still want to look good and feel great. In fact, given the current travel restrictions, more people are having to look for spa and beauty services locally. There is also a good level of customer confidence and assurance in our own local establishments... will put in place safe management measures."Under the framework, career progression pathways are now clearly mapped out, covering 45 job roles across five tracks.
In her speech, Ms Low brought up the example of Ms Jamie Lai, a senior barber and trainer at Sultans Of Shave, a chain of men's grooming salons. The framework was unveiled by the Beauty Services Alliance - also launched at the same event on Wednesday - which brings together five trade associations in the industry. They are: Complementary Wellness Association International, Hair & Cosmetology Association Singapore, Nailist Association for International Licenses Singapore, Spa Professionals Association of Singapore, and Spa & Wellness Association Singapore.
At the moment, about 40 per cent of the workers in the industry are locals, he said, with the rest from neighbouring countries.
