Story 1

Singapore Pools Is Now Eco-Office Certified

This certificate underscores our commitment to be an environmentally responsible organisation.

We are also glad to lend our support as one of the sponsors of the Singapore Environment Council Conference Day 2017. The conference, 'Ethical Consumerism - Our Responses' held on 13 Oct, provided industry professionals with a deeper understanding of ethical consumerism and how businesses respond to remain sustainable.

Singapore Pools Joins Community of Human Capital Partners

On 10 Oct, Singapore Pools was among 56 companies who joined the Human Capital Partnership (HCP) Programme - a programme that recognises progressive employers who develop staff.

Committed to investing in employees of all ages and at all levels, Singapore Pools' re-employment programme was introduced in Mar 2009, ahead of the enactment of the Retirement and Re-Employment Act in Jan 2012. Our re-employment efforts aim to assist retiring employees to remain economically productive and meaningfully engaged in their golden years. Currently, our oldest employee is 71.
