The shifting sex industry in Singapore and the need for better screening for sex workers​

4 December 2025

Sex work in Singapore has shifted from brothels to online, private and freelance spaces, making it harder for existing public health measures built around regulated venues to reach many workers.

To address these gaps, public health efforts need to extend beyond brothels and provide support that reflects the workers’ real needs, including mental health, safer work guidance and broader sexual and reproductive health support.

Hear from Asst Prof Rayner Tan as he highlights how Singapore’s public health approach can evolve to meet the realities of today’s sex work landscape.
