The Public Service faces a more challenging operating context with increasing geopolitical, economic, financial risks, rising domestic needs, and a more vocal, diverse citizenry. Tightening resource constraints, especially manpower, necessitate an accelerated pace of workforce transformation to ensure we remain a lean, skilled and agile Service. The traditional notion of a lifelong (or career) civil servant is increasingly being challenged by the need for a greater diversity of talent, skills and experiences, with public agencies needing to hire more mid-careerists and contend with a highly mobile workforce. Taken together, the changing operating and manpower contexts have contributed to an evolving landscape of organisational and employee needs. Our HR policies need to better support “net-like” career development pathways to enable officers to reskill throughout their longer career spans. Such HR transformation efforts are necessary to strengthen the public sector’s overall employee value proposition and enable the Public Service to attract and retain its fair share of talent. PSD’s HR Policy cluster develops policies relating to appointments, movements, benefits, compensation, and performance management. We take reference from best practices globally to ensure that our public sector can continue to attract, develop, retain, and motivate the right talent to build a successful and vibrant Singapore for the next generation.
