You elite so I help you add a few more requirements.

 

Travel business class. First class for long haul. Stay 5* international hotels. Personal meals during travel $100/time. 28 days annual leave. Full medical benefits including coverage for family. Company handphone and car to be used at your discretion.

 

Finally 20k per month pay with 6 months guaranteed bonus and a golden parachute should you be asked to leave

 

Enough?

Older PMETs hardest hit as layoffs increase across sectors

What will you do if you were retrench? For middle age workers with young children to feed, elderly to support, car loan, housing loans and tone of monthly bills. The thought of being lay off is real and daunting.

In blog post, NTUC assistant secretary-general raises questions over certain employment-severance practices

There are about 738,200 resident PMEs in Singapore, about 100,000 more than in 2014. The companies likely to be affected by a weaker market also have a higher concentration of PMEs, he said.

 

 

As in citizens + PRs + anyone with an employment pass.

"Older workers and those with higher educational qualifications took longer to find jobs after they were retrenched last year, compared to other groups."

 

Last time, people say: Wah! Nowadays need a degree then can find a job.

 

Now if you get retrenched, better burn that degree and turn up with an O/ A level/ Poly cert...

Degrees have expiry date one. Not helpful that one of our ministar actually suggested degrees should come with expiry date...

 

I think if your degree is 5 years and above, considered expired liao.

 

Yes, I went to few interviews recently where the interviewers asked me some questions on what I have studied before. My answer was yes, but when he looked at my degree conferred date, he said too long liao, no count.  [laugh]

what is this LSS saying? the govt shld legislate a minimum, say 2 mths salary for retrenchments. Companies have the responsibility to look after their employees and they need to help out when firing staff
