王瑞杰要促进年轻人工作生活平衡 网民:只是梦幻理论

王瑞杰和妻子一起出席父亲节嘉年华Dad’s Day Out。

“政府不久将会推出一系列对话,以帮助年轻的父母们在工作和生活上取得平衡。”副总理兼财政部长王瑞杰表示,这是之前推介各种其他措施的额外措施,比如2013年推出的陪产假,允许父亲们拥有更多时间陪伴他们的孩子。

王瑞杰出席6月16日,由非营利组织“好爸爸中心”(Centre for Fathering)旗下“终身为父”(Dads for Life)运动,以及新传媒联合举办的父亲节嘉年华Dad’s Day Out上,发表以上谈话。他也透露,有关的系列谈话将由人力部长杨莉明负责。

“一个家庭最大的困难之一,就是学着如何平衡工作和与孩子共度的时光。我和妻子之前工作,也为这项事情挣扎过……雇主也应该考虑,如何为全部父母们创造更好地工作和生活和谐的工作环境。”

网友盼制定可行方案

另一方面,人力部长杨莉明周日在其脸书上说道“在任何地方,父亲是否有权享有陪产假,对工作场所和文化规范而言是非常重要的。在很多工作与生活和谐相关的问题上,我对彼此行为塑造的期望比政策来得强。这就是为什么我认为这个话题值得和需要我们集思并付诸行动。”

她说道,“身为个人,我们必须做出什么选择,才能取得更好的工作和生活和谐?作为整个社会,我们应该如何更好地相互支持彼此,以取得工作、个人和家庭的平衡?”

她在帖文中也表示,希望周六宣布成立改善工作与生活和谐的公民小组,能将各行各业的国人聚集在一起,提供不同的观点,制定解决方案,创造可持续性的新加坡工作和生活和谐环境。

章慧霓赞丈夫亲密伴侣

王瑞杰在周日的致辞中,还分享婚姻伴侣和父母身份的重要性,“如果家庭成员关系亲密且有凝聚力,每个人都能各尽所能,我们的孩子将在非常安全的环境下成长” 。

王瑞杰的太太,国家文物局局长章慧霓受邀上台致辞时,感谢先生的“密切合作”。

“当我怀孕时,会陪我散步。在我分娩时,陪在我身旁。在孩子只有数天大,甫出院的时候,会帮孩子洗澡。教导孩子们如何阅读和骑脚踏车,如何成为一个更好的人……从一开始,(他)就一直是一个非常密切的伴侣关系,我对此真的非常感激。”

网民不看好对话会

在社交媒体上,网民们嘲笑王瑞杰强调工作与生活之平衡的重要,其中网民Paul Yip揶揄,他都已经53岁了,还听到这种在我国难以实现的“梦幻理论”,因为本地企业只关注实现他们的关键绩效指数,而要达到绩效,就得长时间工作,真得很难做到工作-生活平衡。

一些人在脸书上写道,政府可以停止组织一系列的对话,而是采取一些年轻父母都需要的行动。

Jacob Seet认为,对话会应该和老板及经理们进行,而不是和员工群。

有者指出,要达到工作和生活的和谐是不可能的,因为目前的生活成本非常高。基于价格的快速上涨,民众别无选择,只能花费更多时间工作,以便能够负担医疗和儿童保健等费用。

因此,他们呼吁政府降低我国的生活成本。

为政府提成建议

另有一些网民还建议政府,可以采取不同的方式来取得工作和生活平衡。

这些建议包括了每周工作四天、缩短工作时间、伸缩性安排工作,并根据安排给出相对应的福利。

网民也表示,工作和生活的平衡必须适用于所有阶层人士,不能只让年轻夫妻受惠。
