According to the Singapore Business Review, the Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance (BFSI) sector was hardest hit, with a sharp 36% drop in hiring activity.

The IT/Telecom/ISP sector followed closely behind, with a 35% decline, and the Advertising, Market Research, Public Relations, Media, and Entertainment industries saw a 32% decrease.

Explaining the trend, the foundit pointed to economic challenges such as slowdowns, recessions, and uncertainties, which lead to reduced investments and weaker demand for services.

However, amidst the gloom, the Import/Export sector managed to make a 1% growth in hiring.

When it comes to functional areas, the legal sector stood out with positive growth, bucking the overall downward trend.

On the other hand, Software/Hardware/Telecom suffered the most, with a steep 50% decline. After that came Finance & Accounts, with a 34% decline, and Real Estate, which saw a 32% drop.

“The decline can primarily be attributed to significant advancements in technology, particularly in artificial intelligence, which has enabled the widespread adoption of automated customer service solutions,” foundit explained.

It further noted that businesses are reassessing their spending and reshaping operations to incorporate cost-saving technological solutions. /TISG

Some hospitals in Singapore are saving tens of thousands of man-hours each year by tapping on technology.

This has helped them ease the manpower crunch facing the healthcare sector and lower operating costs. This could in turn lower medical bills for patients. Sabrina Ng takes a look at some of the technology being used.

SINGAPORE – Fewer foreign patients are flocking to Singapore than before as costs here rise and competition intensifies in the region, and there is a need for providers to pivot to offering more critical and complex care, healthcare experts said.

For decades, foreign patients from Indonesia, Sri Lanka, Vietnam and elsewhere have been coming to Singapore for a wide range of medical care, from health screenings to scopes to surgical procedures in various specialities, including heart bypass surgery and organ transplant.

However, the competition that Singapore faces from players in the region, particularly Malaysia and Thailand, has grown significantly over the years, as healthcare providers in these neighbouring countries can carry out standard procedures for a much lower fee than what is charged here, experts said.
