SG Enable

Just Tell Me

SG Enable is Singapore’s national agency for disability, helping build inclusion, including employment support for persons with disabilities and employers.

Explain Like I’m Five

Finding a job can involve more than matching a vacancy to a CV: the person and workplace may need support to work well together. SG Enable connects persons with disabilities, employers and partners around that task. Employment is one part of its wider disability-inclusion role, rather than the name of a single hiring grant.

How It Works

For its partner-delivered Job Placement and Job Support services, the broad flow is preparation, matching with employers, then support to settle into work. Partners help identify strengths and training needs, consider job tasks and accessibility, and provide job coaching. The support and services depend on the programme and person’s circumstances.

Where You’ll Run Into It

In an HR discussion about disability-inclusive hiring or workplace adjustments. A personal mobility aid, such as a wheelchair, may be relevant to accessibility, but disability inclusion extends beyond mobility needs.

MOM names the manpower ministry; tripartism names collaboration among government, employers and unions. SG Enable names the disability agency.

Example

“Our HR team is looking at SG Enable’s resources before hiring a colleague with a disability.”

The team is exploring support for inclusive employment. SG Enable and its partners can support the employment journey; the name does not mean SG Enable itself is offering that job.
