6th AGM for full writeup
By 7.00pm on 19
June 2007, 60 members of Singapore Professionals’ and Executives’ Co-operative
(SPEC) had signed in and settled comfortably in SPEC’s office at Singapore
Conference Hall for its 6th Annual General Meeting.
-
Positive reports of strong economy growth that led to employment gains and
further drop in unemployment.
-
SPEC
had to shift its focus to provide enhanced services such as career advisory to
help mature PMETs (professionals, managers, executives and technicians) settle
down in their new jobs in this new economy and assist employers in their search
for the right talent.
-
SPEC
introduced JobCentre@SPEC to continue its efforts to assist individuals and
organisations in their recruitment and outplacement needs.
-
PrimePlus@SPEC, a project funded by MCYS to help
matured executives and professionals aged 50 and above to lead an active ageing
life, was extended for another six months to June 2007.
-
The
Chairman reiterated on SPEC’s continual efforts to approach other governmental
organisations for assistance in finding gainful employment or to take advantage
of opportunities.
-
Year
2006 saw 6.7% increment in membership to 1,634. New members were recruited
mainly from corporate organisations and jobseekers who registered at Careerlink@SPEC,
monthly networking sessions and Career Fairs.
-
Members continue to give good feedback on the Group Insurance Plan for its
portability.
-
SPEC
aspires to move away from being fund-reliant to a self-sufficient co-operative
by identifying future revenue streams that would sustain its operation, thereby
enhancing its position of being more than a “harbour of lives and opportunities”
in time of difficulty and uncertainty.
-
Successful re-appointment by the Founder of both teams for 3 and 5 years
respectively.
