While other Asian countries are quickly catching up, Singapore leads the brigade as one of the most-developed landscapes for Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) services in the region.

A recent survey by recruiting experts Hays has revealed 80% of respondents intend to look for a new job in 2020.

Would you rather your boss praised your successes or offered you unwanted perks? According to recruiting experts Hays, most employees prefer the former, which is why organisations could forgo headline-grabbing perks in favour of a simple ‘thank you’ and recognition for a job well done.

Marked by continued digital innovation, business transformation and a slowing global economy, 2020 is lining up to be a year that will be as full of challenges as it will opportunities.

Marked by continuous digital transformation and automation, Singapore’s job market is geared for significant evolution in the coming year, says recruiting experts Hays, as part of the country’s top 10 talent trends for 2020.

The average working age is increasing across the globe and as a result, employers should embrace the benefits of a more mature workforce, says recruiting experts Hays.

CEO of recruiting experts Hays, Alistair Cox, says business leaders need to sometimes step off the “treadmill of busyness” and give themselves space to focus on areas and issues which add more value to their organisation.

The latest Diversity & Inclusion (D&I) report by leading recruitment experts Hays found that an overwhelming majority of working professionals across Asia considered a workplace culture that encouraged and rewarded diverse opinions as the most crucial element in retaining top talent.

Hays Singapore was ranked number one in the ‘small workplace’ category of the 5th annual Singapore Best Workplaces™ study, held by Great Place to Work®, a global authority on workplace culture.

Going green can benefit staff attraction and retention, but organisations must demonstrate real commitment. According to recruiting experts Hays, if genuine talent attraction and retention benefits are to be realised, employers need to ensure their sustainability efforts are authentic.
