Reminder to care for your health and wellbeing🤍

If you’re pregnant, have health conditions, or have caregiving needs, including those arising from school or childcare closures, do take necessary precautions.

If needed, speak with your employer about suitable work arrangements, including temporary Flexible Work Arrangements (FWAs), where possible.

🎉 Congratulations to Go-Ahead Singapore (GAS) on the launch of its Wellness Corner at the new East Coast Bus Depot under NTUC Women and Family’s Better Workplace Campaign!

🚌 It takes an entire ecosystem of workers to keep Singapore moving. That’s why progressive employers like GAS are investing in workplace practices that support employees across different life stages and needs.

Recent findings from the Women Across Life Stages Survey by NTUC Women and Family (WAF) and PAP Women’s Wing highlighted the importance of workplace flexibility and supportive cultures in helping employees balance work, family and caregiving responsibilities. Through its flexible work arrangements, workplace anti-harassment policies, and adoption of the Tripartite Standard on Work-Life Harmony, GAS continues to demonstrate its commitment to fair and progressive employment practices.

🌿 Through the Better Workplace Campaign, NTUC WAF recognises employers who go the extra mile to support employee well-being and build inclusive workplaces. The Wellness Corner at East Coast Bus Depot is a meaningful reflection of GAS’ people-centric approach.

❤️Together with National Transport Workers' Union, we’re proud to celebrate public transport operators that are building better workplaces for the people who keep Singapore moving every day.

✨ Supporting caregivers and jobseekers starts with understanding their realities

At the Marsiling WEC Career Fair @ Woodlands Civic Centre, our women leaders connected with caregivers and jobseekers, sharing resources such as the Yes, Flex! job portal and learning more about the challenges many face in balancing work and caregiving.

These conversations matter. They help us better understand the needs of women and families, strengthen our advocacy efforts, and connect individuals to practical resources and support.

🌱 At NTUC Women and Family, we believe leadership is built through listening, engaging and serving the community. By stepping forward and being on the ground, our leaders gain valuable insights that help shape stronger support for working women, caregivers and families.

💜 Because effective advocacy begins with understanding the people we serve.

🎥 We recently celebrated the launch of CloudMile 萬里雲 ’s Wellness Corner under our Better Workplace campaign.

In this conversation, we hear how workplace practices such as flexible work arrangements have become part of their culture and how it benefits the business.

Because culture can be felt. When employees feel supported, valued and trusted, workplaces become more attractive places to join, stay and grow. 💜

💜 A meaningful weekend spent!
Over the weekend, NTUC Women and Family and our NTUC Central Committee leaders were at the PAP Women’s Wing Conference where the Women Across Life Stages Survey findings were launched.

The voices of more than 2,375 women have given us valuable insights into the realities women face across different stages of life and career.

As we build on these findings, we’re encouraged by the many women who chose to share not just their responses, but also their personal stories. Their lived experiences will continue to shape the work we do.

Here’s to keeping the conversation going and turning insights into impact✨

💜 Thank you to the 2,375 women who participated in the Women Across Life Stages Survey, a collaboration between PAP Women’s Wing and NTUC Women and Family.

Beyond the survey responses, more than 700 women took the time to share their personal experiences, challenges and hopes in their own words. Together, these findings reinforce what many women have been telling us for years: support at work must evolve alongside the realities of life.

At NTUC Women and Family, we will continue to push for:

✅ Workplace cultures where employees can ask for support without fear, judgement or career penalties

“There needs to be no penalty, no judgement, no calculated deduction.”

✅ FWAs that are normalised, trusted and genuinely accessible, not just available on paper

“Employees will only be able to fully utilise the support provided when there is no discrimination or judgement from management and peers.”

✅ Stronger support through life’s transitions, from family planning and breastfeeding to caregiving, perimenopause and menopause

“Women need support to remove the stigma that women must excel simultaneously in every role.”

📌 Breastfeeding support remains a perennial workplace challenge, with too many mothers still returning to workplaces without sufficient time or access to private spaces to pump or breastfeed.

📌 Women navigating perimenopause and menopause are also calling for greater awareness, understanding and open conversations, so that no one feels they have to manage these challenges alone.

💡 These are not just women’s issues. They are workforce issues.

We are especially encouraged that many women have expressed interest in continuing this conversation with us. Through future research and engagement, we hope to better understand the lived experiences behind the data and turn these insights into meaningful advocacy and action.

💜 Women have told us what matters: workplace flexibility, supportive workplace cultures, better breastfeeding support, and greater understanding through perimenopause and menopause.

We hear you. And we will continue championing these issues until support is not just available on paper, but genuinely felt in everyday working life.

Strong families often rely on a village of support🌱

That’s why NTUC is supporting better workplace practices, better job design and more training support, so that more working caregivers can benefit from AI-enabled workplaces.

Along with this we are continually strengthening the ecosystem of childcare, healthcare and eldercare. So that we can have a society where everyone can thrive, both at work and at home.

At the Summit for Action on Gender Equality (SAGE) Conference 2026, NTUC Director (Social Policy) Adeline Kooi shared these perspectives during a panel discussion on supporting caregivers across different seasons of life✨

The conversation continued at our breakout session on Flexible Work Arrangements, where participants explored what it takes to make flexibility work ⭐️from building trust and supportive workplace cultures, to recognising that FWA is not one-size-fits-all and goes beyond working from home!

A shoutout to our union leaders from the Women’s Committee for being part of the conversation and bringing workers’ perspectives to the table💜
