阿裕尼集选区国会议员林瑞莲,敦促政府协助中期职涯雇员,应考量提升技能、收入保障等方案,因为一些被裁职员可能因为职能不匹配、甚至要花好几个月才找到新工作。

林瑞莲也是工人党主席。她在昨日参与2020财政预算案辩论。

她赞许政府在财案中,协助职涯中期(mid-career)劳工的举措。不过,她也提及这些员工转换不同领域都需要花费一些时间,其中一些被裁员工,可能要花费好几个月才可能找到新工作。

她指出,可能雇员技能与职业不匹配,向政府机构求助,不论对雇员本身乃至他的整个家庭,都可能在精神和情感上带来压力。

她建议政府可为被裁员工提供保险,为他们的收入在面对失业或突然裁员时提供保障。

此外,也应容许那些达到最低公积金储蓄金额的国人,可以使用自己的储蓄升学,提升技能。

“这在之前就曾在国会讨论过,尽管政府不认为这算是“疯狂注意”,但仍倾向现有的创造就业和再培训技能的方案…然而,政府对于现有配套,能否为所有人找到解决方案,有多大信心?”

她认为,当前的经济环境说明, 上述保障能让员工在面对就业颠覆时减缓影响和提供稳定。

林瑞莲指出,政府应定期检讨当前的经济和技术转变。“如果公民们的焦虑没有受到重视,只会广开民粹和地方主义的大门。”
