SINGAPORE - Nearly half of the employees of Suntec Singapore Convention and Exhibition Centre have been retrenched amid the ongoing decimation of the meetings, incentives, conventions and exhibitions industry.
"Due care has also been taken to ensure an ageless workforce, maintaining staff across the various age groups," said Suntec Singapore in a joint statement with the Building Construction and Timber Industries Employees' Union . The management of Suntec Singapore has also taken up to 40 per cent in pay cuts, it added, but uncertainty remains over when the situation will improve.
"Every individual in our team has contributed to the success of our company for many years and I am truly sorry to have to ask many of our wonderful and talented people to look for alternative employment," he said. So far, NTUC's Employment and Employability Institute has identified at least two job opportunities for each local employee who is affected, said the company.
Eligible union members will also receive help to apply for the NTUC Care Fund , which provides one-off support of up to $300.
