From 1 July 2020, the Workfare Skills Support (WSS) Scheme will replace the Workfare Training Support (WTS) Scheme, which was first introduced in 2010 and had benefitted over 270,000 Singaporeans to date. The introduction of the WSS Scheme is in line with Workforce Singapore’s (WSG) efforts to better help low wage workers (LWWs) upgrade their skills and boost their career mobility. The WSS Scheme will better enable LWWs to undertake training that leads to more impactful employment outcomes.
