on

 Firm’s ongoing transformation includes digital upskilling for employees as a building block towards a future-ready workforce  

SINGAPORE, June 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Certis will boost its technology (tech) workforce hiring to develop more innovative, smart security solutions incorporating internet of things, robotics and artificial intelligence to support the increased digitalisation amongst existing and potential customers following the pandemic. 

 

Asia’s leading smart security and integrated services firm will launch a recruitment campaign in Singapore from 1 June 2022, targeted at hiring tech professionals, managers, executives and technicians (PMET) roles. As part of its transformation into a tech-led security solutions firm, the campaign aims to attract more tech individuals to design and create Certis’ next generation of technological offerings – from operations-tech to enterprise software – so as to achieve greater operational efficiencies and business outcomes for its customers. Interested job candidates can apply for vacancies at join.certisgroup.com

Available roles range from data engineers, software architects, cybersecurity specialists, cloud engineers and data analysts.

Mr Robin Goh, Certis’ Senior Vice President and Head of Group Communications and Marketing, said: “Our globally talented tech workforce has been instrumental in supporting Certis’ strategic evolution into a technology company in the last four years. As we continue to expand our suite of innovative enterprise ops-tech solutions and products across our large global customer footprint in diverse sectors, our tech workforce must grow in tandem – to fulfil our purpose to secure a safer, smarter, better future for generations ahead.”

Since 2018, Certis’ tech workforce has supported the development of industry-leading smart integrated solutions such as Security+ and BPRO® to drive business outcomes in increased productivity, efficiency and enhanced experience for its customers in the government, retail, property and education sectors. In addition, the tech teams have also developed in-house ops-tech applications for staff members, such as Allegro, e-LMS (on-demand learning management system) and its back-to-office app, in transforming how employees work and interact – while at the same time driving productivity and efficiency within the organisation.

Continuous Upskilling for a Future-Ready Workforce

As Certis continues to grow, it remains committed to upskilling the knowledge and skill-sets of its tech workforce. In the last year, 77% of its global tech workforce have upgraded their skills in data analytics, ops-tech and development, enterprise systems and project management. These tech courses were conducted online through Certis’ e-LMS system established by Certis Corporate University (CCU), as well as in partnership with various global technology partners.

To instil tech-savviness across its business, Certis has also extended tech development courses to its employees in non-tech roles. Immersive technology and methods have also been introduced by CCU to enhance the applied learning experience. These include incorporating virtual and augmented reality into training programmes that enable employees to learn more effectively through multiple scenario-based immersive learning. Over 50% of its office-based workforce have taken courses to build core digital literacy skills in data analytics, power platforms and rapid applications development.

Additionally, Certis has also focused on tech upskilling for its frontline team members. In the past year alone, some 87% of its 11,000-strong frontliners in Singapore had completed at least one digital and technology programme.

TELUS Mental Health Index: Mental health of workers in Australia hits four-year low, costing businesses up to 69 workdays of productivity annually per employee

New data reveals younger workers and those without savings face the highest mental
health risks, while strong employer support can halve productivity losses

SYDNEY, Nov. 22, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Today, TELUS Health released its TELUS Mental Health Index (“the Index”) with reports that examine the mental health of employed people in Australia, Singapore, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada and Europe. The Australian report reveals that the mental health of workers in Australia has hit a four-year low, costing businesses up to 69 workdays of productivity annually per employee. The Index also found that younger workers and those without savings face the highest mental health risks, while strong employer support can halve productivity losses.

“With mental health scores at an all-time low nationwide, it’s essential to understand the significant impact on productivity. A workforce that isn’t thriving can’t drive a business to its full potential,” said Paula Allen, Global Leader, Research & Client Insights, TELUS Health. “We know that mental health and wellbeing can improve or decline over time, and that the support available makes a big difference in improvement. As employees increasingly look to their employers for comprehensive support—whether financial, physical, or mental—all of which are essential to their overall wellbeing- the opportunity for employers to make a meaningful impact with the services they offer, increases.”

The TELUS Mental Health Index also found:

Anxiety and isolation are the biggest mental health challenges for workers in Australia.Workers in Public Administration (68.4), Wholesale Trade (66.5) and Technology (65.2) have the highest mental health scores compared to other sectors. Younger workers (under 40) are more than twice as likely as workers over 50 to report being diagnosed with anxiety and depression.Workers without emergency savings are three times more likely to be diagnosed with anxiety and depression, with mental health scores 30 points lower than those with savings.Workers rating their employer’s physical wellbeing support as excellent have better mental health and lose fewer workdays compared to those rating it poorly.

“The mental health challenges facing workers in Australia, particularly among younger employees and those without financial safety nets, are concerning. It’s clear that isolation, anxiety and economic pressures are taking a toll,” said Jamie MacLennan, Senior Vice-president and Managing Director of APAC, TELUS Health. “However, our findings also reveal a significant opportunity for employers. By investing in robust programs addressing physical, mental as well as financial wellbeing, and fostering a supportive work environment, businesses can not only improve their employees’ mental health but also substantially boost productivity and overall organisational performance.”

In September 2024, the mental health scores of workers in various regions were:

Australia: 61.1New Zealand: 59.7Singapore: 61.6United Kingdom: 70.6Europe: 61.6United States: 70.6Canada: 64.4

The TELUS Mental Health Index is based on a response scoring system that then turns individual responses into point values. Higher point values are associated with better mental health and less mental health risk. Scores between 0 to 49 correspond with distress levels, scores between 50 to 79 correspond with strain levels and scores between 80 to 100 correspond with optimal levels of mental health.

This TELUS Mental Health Index includes additional findings on physical health, diet and experiences with the healthcare system. As a company rooted in social purpose, TELUS Health is committed to improving health outcomes and sharing valuable insights. Read the full Australian TELUS Mental Health Index here.
